While I still have a thriller novel I’m working on, I’ve decided that maybe I need to work on something else for the time being. This process began with me thinking up a number of short stories that I wanted to work on. Among the short stories was a very political zombie story.
The novel would flip the script on the zombie genre and hopes to be a biting satire. That, at least, would be the goal.
A lot of this comes from my own sense of dread about the cold hard facts of my looming mortality. So, rather than just moping about this cruel fact, I’m funneling into this rather morbid novel idea.
But there is a lot to think about before I can go forward. The premise is great but I tend to have a lot of problems when it comes to plot. So, I’m going to use LLMs to flesh out the plot of the zombie novel to the point that it is actually novel lenght.
