Made it through the end of the world, how about you all?

Sorry I haven't posted for awhile.  I have been locked in the basement saving my family from the end of the world, and the domination of zombies.  Just kidding all.  Just been busy with contaminated children and myself.  As for writing, lately I have been writing in my head more then on pages.  Have a lot of ideas for some short stories for the horror magazine, I entered my first one into.  My zombie book is on hold until Summer starts.  Which is in two weeks, thank goodness.  So was pondering what everyone else was thinking of all the end of the world stuff out there.  This is what I think:  If the end of the world was near I am convinced that nobody would know, not even psychics.  If God wanted to end it, he just would.  If it was a geological end, it would most likely be gradual and not all at once.  I think it isn't about ending, but change.  I think if anything needs to end it is all the Shallowness in our society.  Let's go back to the days when what was important was family.  When our kids used their imagination's.  When we all laughed and stopped worrying about what others think about us. Everything is done for us these days.  Why is it so important to follow others rather than be who you want to be.  Stop letting society lead you.  Do what makes you happy, not others.  I know it sounds like I am preaching.  Believe me I am not.  I say we stop judging others and celebrate the differences.  I love being different.  I have a great imagination, I like horror books and movies.  I like to put wild colors in my hair sometimes.  I want to be me.  I don't look up to others as heroes, I strive to be my own hero.  So am I perfect?  No, far from it!  So all I can say is take today and every other and have fun.  Do what is important.  I don't think any day will be the end, but live it as though it were.  Live it like if it were the end it wouldn't matter, you knew you were a good person.  I know I am a good person, I am a great mom.  So go out there and let your Freak Flags Fly high in the sky, if it pleases you.  And if you bump into some zombies on the way, let them no that it's only the end for them!

No Holes Barred

   Had a great conversation getting my bestfriend, Shelley's advice on some really digusting and funny Zombie scenarios, lol.  We laughed so hard yesterday over them.  Can't be all serious when you are dealing with the undead.  He He.  I am going to do a huge shutin this Sunday to write.  Can't wait I am armed with pretzel crisps, strawberries, pears, Diet Pepsi, so after the gym it is on.  I have a lot to put in that some have never thought of.  Surprises to come all. As I was doing aqua aerobics the other day, I got to thinking.  Hmm if Zombies took over would I still work out.  Well the answer would be yes.  You have to be agile to get out of some situations.  Plus the more muscle you have the tougher you are.  Naw Naw, Ugh. 

Organized and started Today

Have been organizing some notes, researching, and writing today. Let me just tell you that there will be a lot of really interesting characters in this book. I think you all will be pleasantly surprised. So I was thinking if I could lock myself in and write how great would that be. I would just need Diet Pepsi, Some pretzel crisps, dark chocolate, and some pears. I would be set for a few days. lol. Unfortunatly for me that won't happen, at least not with a husband, dog, and two small boys banging on the door. So for today I am done just in time for my one son to come home from school. So remember to lock your doors kiddies, and if the one at the door is asking for brains, shoot high.

Writers mind

Hi Everyone, Been spending the day researching, and of course being just in my writers mind. Thinking, Thinking, Thinking. So I was just throwing around a title that would be the first book to my series. I was thinking Sundays Moon: The beginning. I was just pondering what I want my cover to look like. I was thinking a Moon with one of my main characters looking up to it. In the background you will see chaos, smoke blood, and a house with two scared children looking out. What do you guys think?

Introduction to me and my world

Some of you may know me very well, or not at all. My name is Shawnda and I have always been really into the world of the supernatural. I love all horror and supernatural books and movies. I used to get in trouble as a young child sticking my scary books in between reading books in class. I have always had a facination with ghosts, zombies, witches, werewolves, and everything in between. So am I a young goth girl writing from a wicked basement underground? No I am actually an ex- teacher with a family and schnauzer writing from an office at home. Will you forget all about that when you read my books or inserts online. I think you may. So what am I going to write about you ask? Well I have many ideas of where to start but I think with everything in the world going on and how little books I actually have seen on this perticular obsession of mine. I think I shall write about Zombies. Haven't you been somewhere and had your imagination go," Hmm what if Zombies were after me, what would I do right now?" Well if not rest assured I have too many times to recall, lol. That is why you will love my new and first book. If you are nice I may give some teasers, or even teasers to more books in the making. Don't worry Mark Tufo, you get my first signed copy, as promised. Mark is my friend whom wrote two Zombie books that are fantastic. Check him out! Till later, watch your back you never know when Zombies may rise!
