To the glorious disaster goblins flipping through these chapters...
Maybe you felt the tectonic shudder of civilization crumbling beneath your Crocs.
Maybe you just wanted an excuse to hoard knives and scream at squirrels.
Either way, you're home now.
This guide is for those who prepare for the end not with fear, but with snacks, spite, and suspiciously good aim.
For the ones who will barter toenail clippings and TikTok wisdom in the new world order.
May you survive the government's flaming swan dive, ascend the trash throne, and one day sip lukewarm bourbon from a broken coffee mug with your raccoon warlord overlord, who will probably take the last can of beans. It's fine, they earned it.

*THE UNEDITED VERSION* Beware of typos, errors, and general mistakes. This is a very, very rough draft. "I live in a place called Compound 4. We are one of ten different compounds placed at strategic locations around the US. It's been thirteen years since the virus overtook humanity, turning about ninety percent of us into zombies. I'm not sure how it started exactly; that's classified information. I do know that in order to save what was left of the human race, the president at the time took a bunch of really smart people and kids and relocated them into new 'protected' cities. My father was one of those really smart people. I was only five at the time, but I knew what was happening." Within the walls of the compound, Jay makes stupid mistakes, mistakes even she doesn't understand, putting everyone inside at risk. All because she can't shoot someone. All because she misses the wind in her hair, the flowers on the hillsides, the sound of crickets at night. All because she's different, the only person untouchable by the Virus. When the mistakes begin to duplicate, and a girl shows up who knows her name, everything begins to change in Compound 4. Highest rank in Science Fiction: #9Complete
Diary From The Carrot Union
TESTIMONIES "Dude, the world building is top notch right from the start. It's thematically consistent, the names are zingy and attention grabbing. And we have good concise info being fed to our brains. I love your style." - @SpuriousSimulacrum "This is great so far. Having spent years in Eastern Europe, this humour is equal parts nostalgic and poignant. You've taken the best bits of 'Animal Farm' and '1984' and turned it into something unique here. Definitely added to the reading list for this summer. Can't wait to read more. Well done." - @Mystery_Twins_LTD "This is just such an entertaining read. Seriously, it seems like it should be on Adult Swim or something:)" - @stkingnaturally To Moshare I came seeking fortune, but they're making me work til' I'm dead. And here I am, drunk in the side of some sort of concrete monument in this So-Called rabbit's paradise. Let's check the news...Good! Extra slices of bread for everybody! Ummm, Carrots and cabbages have exceeded their quotas, and the Animalist Party held yet another victory parade, as the Carrot Union has won another war on Talabar Front. And oioioi...'m just too scared to give a shit about it, as Commissar Nikita said whoever protests gets detained, sent to the gulag, and quote on quote, "And never is able to see vodka again." Yes, yes! Funny people I hear every day on the wiretap. Stuff ranging from a guy that stole a stapler, and another guy drugging his coffee with laxative, or some kids setting off fireworks near a retirement home filled with veterans and getting shot by the Carrot Guard Bureau, the CGB But hey, I thought I could share my story here! This place might be a shithole, but hey, who knows what the future might bring? Other than atherosclerosis from eating too much-fried cheburek Right, to the story.

Smack-dab, in the Middle of Nowhere (Waste Stories #1)
Free on Wattpad for the first time! In 2017, Duncan P. Pacey's debut post-apocalyptic comedy novel brought a gritty-yet-silly wasteland New Zealand to Amazon Kindle, and now you can enjoy it here. ~~Amazon/Goodreads reviews:~~ "Pratchetty humour with a hack n slash edge." "I absolutely loved Pacey's humor and his descriptions of this tongue-in-cheek twisted world!" "The odd characters are strangely engaging and what seems like a cracked narrative, cleverly comes together to tell a fascinating tale." * * * "Bert'd be damned if this bar did anything other than thrive. Smack-dab would prosper, or she'd shoot folk until it did." Bert is the takes-no-crap bar owner of Smack-dab, a struggling tavern halfway from nowhere to nowhere else. All around her is the barren, post-apocalyptic Waste, a terrifying place plagued by villainous bandits, ravenous monsters, and Things that go bump in the night (and also eat you). The Waste is in turmoil. Lord Ash has been overthrown, replaced by a terrifyingly powerful giant hell-bent on taxing anyone and everyone that can help fund his devious master plan. Smack-dab is threatened with total destruction, but Bert has a plan of her own. Can she rally enough help to fend off the bandits? Strange and hilarious, "Smack-dab, in the Middle of Nowhere" is the fresh new face of the post-apocalypse, even if that face has more creepy mutant eyes than you expected.Complete

The Apocalypse Has Dawned
Katherine Burns is one tough sniper. Stealthy, smart, basically invincible. But when her group leaves her behind, she's left vulnerable and weak. But just when she thinks it's over for her, she is saved by none other than 10K. They travel for two weeks before coming across a camp, where Kat finds one she's been missing forever. Kat wants to stay, but 10K decides to leave, which causes Kat to leave, bringing two old friends along. As they travel, there is nothing but tension between the group. Jealousy and envy is always around. Soon, 10K can't take it anymore, and he leaves. Kat, of course is heartbroken, but she before she can find him, her old group catches up. Will Kat find 10K? Will she forgive him for leaving and breaking her heart? Will Kat realize who she truly loves? I don't own any characters except for Kat, Zach, Lena, and thank you creative_writer_101 for Rose. Sorry for the summary, I hope the story is better. And, this is basically only 10K. There really isn't any other characters in this fan fiction. In the second book/sequel, they will be introduced. Even if you don't watch the show, this doesn't have any spoilers. tw// self harm, suicide, heavy religious ideas/beliefsComplete
