FS for October - Song for the Undead by Rose and Julie
RokofAges75:
I love that 28 Days Later has the hospital scene, we have the hospital scene (which, yeah, we basically ripped off 28 Days Later LOL - but there was a reason for Nick to be in the hospital which goes beyond it just being creepy), and the new AMC show Walking Dead also has the hospital scene. (I saw it in the preview; it starts on Halloween; OMG I'M SO EXCITED!!!) Apparently the hospital is THE place to be in the midst of a zombie outbreak.
Rose:
I am too! That's one thing I'd recommend, checking out the new zombie show on AMC! Apparently (from what Julie and I have seen) it's like a mix of our story in terms of characters. It looks all sorts of awesome.
And yes there was definitely a reason for Nick to be in that hospital, but the creepyness is lovely. Plus the hospital is like the WORST place to be in a zombie outbreak, so I guess that's why everyone loves to stick characters there. Mwahahaha.
Carter-Orange:
I'm looking forward to that new TV show too! I think one of my favourite chapters is the one where they're riding around in the ambulance taking pot shots at zombies whilst Thriller blasts from the speakers :) I also love the chapter where Brian discovers what his family have become, and of course the latest chapter. In fact, I love it all :)
I should ask another question, so here goes...
Do you ever disagree? You seem to share the same vision for the story, but I wondered if there is ever a time you don't agree.
Rose:
The chapters you just mentioned? Those are all Julie's chapters, I'd like to point out Steph. She definitely created the epicness there. :)
Um... we haven't really disagreed in awhile. In the beginning, I think there were some debates. There were three of us then too though, so that makes more sense, more chances for debate. Plus we were still trying to nail down the characters, figure out where we were going to go with everything.
RokofAges75:
Yeah, we agree on most things, and when we don't agree at first, we talk it over and always come to a consensus. LOL I remember when it came time to write those first zombie parts, we had always joked about the zombies going "BRAAAAAAINSSSS S..." in our IMs, but I had to finally ask, "We're not really going to have the zombies say 'Brains,' are we??" We both agreed that, no, our zombies wouldn't speak - and they'd be SLOW zombies, not fast zombies, cause fast zombies suck! We pretty much do share the same vision for the story, so that makes it easy to agree.
And thanks, both of you! Those parts would have been epic no matter who wrote them; I was just lucky enough to end up with them.
