I have a terrible habit of starting stories, then letting them sit. And sit.

But when I go back, I realize I have started something I like, and would like to see how it turns out.

So, I'm back working on a zombie story, a kind of prequel about a girl zombie, the main character in the YA book I've been sending out. Posting about it seems like a good way to commit to finishing it.

Sometimes a character doesn't let you go. Nor do you want her to. This time, I'm putting a different little wrinkle in the love story between my girl zombie, Becca, and her boyfriend, Gabe.

Oh, and forget your usual notion of zombies.

Becca is nothing like them. Nothing at all.

In fact, she thinks life can be near normal again. At least she did until her guy went out and moved hundreds of miles away without telling her.

So, she came up with a plan. Kind of.

But like most plans, it doesn't go the way she expected. Instead, she finds herself facing a most unexpected, and most unusual, new love.

Will Becca and Gabe learn what life post-Z is like - together? Or will she find a new love under a big, bright, beautiful full moon?

Stay tuned...
