The Dead Don't Bleed
You'd think the zombie apocalypse would start the way you'd imagine it, right? Dead bodies popping out of their graves, hands trying to claw their way out so they can scratch and bite whoever comes near them. The sky turning black and only the strong survive. That's what would typically happen, right? Wrong. But, of course, despite it being as cliche as it was, that was his thoughts on how it would happen, if it ever did, but then again, that was before IT happened. Before a simple drug turned nearly half of each and every population into the undead. Before Keith lost the only family he ever had. And before he met a small group of six that would change his life forever. 2019 Open Novella Shortlist QualifierComplete
