Zombies!: Episode 2: Abby's Bad Day
Zombies! It's not the end of the world. Abby Benjamin is a typical working mom. But when one of the customers at the gym where she works falls ill, Abby gets a close up look at a completely different world, a world of monsters that is ever creeping into the lives of normal people. It is a very bad day.
For Abby Benjamin, reality is hard enough. She must get out of bed in the early hours of the morning in order to get work on time. Her husband is unemployed, one of the many whose skills became expendable. And, on top of it all, her son is ill.
At the gym where she works, she does her best to put everything aside and concentrate. But when one of the customers becomes ill and injures himself, she takes him to the hospital only to enter a brand new nightmare. The dying, the dead, and a locked down ER with Abby inside make her long for the problems she's left behind.

About the author
Ivan Turner
48 books11 followersA child of the movies, I was always consumed by fantastic stories told by others and translated into adventures to be retold by me through the action figure medium. As I grew older, I put the action figures away and moved into the realm of role playing. Though I never outgrew role playing, I certainly don't have the time for it anymore. Since I was eleven years old, I've been pouring almost every ounce of creative energy I have into writing.
I graduated college in 1993 with a degree in computer science. I tried my hand at programming for a couple of years and found it pretty unsatisfying. I later became a partner at a comic book store, where I spent several years. Though it wasn't a financial success, the experience I gained from running the store and the people that I met (many whom I'm still in touch with today) was priceless. After leaving the store, I settled into a career of teaching. I still teach at a public high school in New York. Ironically, I've picked up computer programming again, which is what I mostly teach, peppered with some math courses now and again.
I've been writing the whole time.
I released my first book electronically in 2010. Forty Leap was, and still is, the pinnacle of my writing to date. It was a turning point for me in both style and story building. The Book of Revelations, which was written earlier but released later, was sort of a midway point between the writer I was and the writer I've become. I experimented with a very odd style and a story that employed diverse characters and controversial situations.
In September 2010, I released the first installment of Zombies! It went out for free, the subsequent episodes each priced at 99 cents. Zombies! has been a tremendous success for me and I'm currently working with someone to develop it into a television series.
