#WeWriWa Never Say Die: A Zombie Time Loop Story #zombie #paranormal #apocalyptic #groundhogday

Welcome to Weekend Writing Warriors. We each post 8-10 (I really wanted to go for 12, but I restrained myself) sentences. If you recall, Cassy was taking on a whole hoard of zombies.

My cockiness is my demise. I see something red in the distance as a monster bites into the side of my neck and I scream in pain and rage. My glasses are knocked from my head and I fall to my knees, everything going dark. I can’t die, there are too many people counting on me, too much to do. I don’t even know if Heph got the kids out.
***
My legs are wet. Why are my legs wet? I smell salt, and feel a breeze. Are there breezes in hell? I suppose I could be in heaven, but I doubt they’d take me.


You can purchase Never Say Die on most platforms or in paperback:
Amazon, Nook, Kobo, iBooks, paper.

    Wow, I never expected her to get bitten! Intense indeed and now I can't wait to see what happens next. Well done snippet. On an admin note, I didn't find a link back to the WeWriWa site? Is it just me? Can you add one, please? :) Thanks!

    Oops. She's not dead, but is she undead?

    I especially enjoyed her introspection on the prospect of death.

    I like the immediacy of it. We really get in her head.

    This is a bad situation if ever there was one. I'm intrigued, however, by the shift from the encounter with the zombie to a place with a salt breeze. Is she dreaming? Or was she dreaming about the zombie attack? Can't wait for next week!

    The price of pride is steep! Well I hope that's not the afterlife, somehow...

    What an intense and intriguing snippet! Love the introspection and the thoughts going through her mind about the nature of her existence (or lack of it!)

    Great line:My legs are wet. Why are my legs wet?
    This could mean pretty much anything but it had me laughing.
