FS for October - Song for the Undead by Rose and Julie
Rose:
Honestly? I don't think I would change much. Even though I'm not that fond of Kayleigh, oddly she's necessary. And she's really the one part that can drive me batty at times about this story.
RokofAges75:
I was thinking that too, about Kayleigh. I had the thought that maybe we would have replaced her with a character who could contribute some kind of skill to the group, the way Jo and Kevin can, but really, we have so many strong, tough characters, I think we needed some weak ones like her to make it realistic. Personally, I know if I were in the midst of a zombie apocalypse, I would not be the one hunting the zombies down with a gun; I would be the one running and hiding and panicking LOL. So I get that side of Kayleigh, and I think she adds variety to the story.
Rose:
Exactly. It's weird, cause she gets on my last nerve, trying to get in her head. And I get like that with Howie sometimes too. No real skills, more of a hindrance than helpful. So their minds and writing from that, can get aggravating. But on that same note, they can't all be strong and adaptable.
I'd probably be like Gretchen, not a ton of use on the task of zombie hunting, but finding my own ways to contribute instead.
Carter-Orange:
I have to agree with you about Kayleigh. She's not a lot of use, but you do need people like her in the story to make it realistic, as not everyone can be a gun toting zombie killer :D I'm not sure who I'd be like, but I like to think I'd be more useful than a hindrance in that kind of situation.
Oh and yes, that would be really cruel to make us wait a week and then hit us with another cliffy! I was shocked to see another update to soon.
RokofAges75:
We're mean enough to draw a cliffy out for two chapters, but not mean enough to leave you hanging too long if we can help it. Chapter 69 is up, and the cliffhanger has been resolved!
