Zombie outbreak? Not quite! But I am giving away 3 copies of the upcoming release, Dust by , which features a teenager girl and her own zombie story!
Here's a quick blurb:
Nine years ago, Jessie had a family. Now, she has a gang.
Nine years ago, Jessie was a vegetarian. Now, she eats very fresh meat.
Nine years ago, Jessie was in a car crash and died. Nine years ago, Jessie was human.
Now, she’s not.
After she was buried, Jessie awoke and tore through the earth to arise, reborn, as a zombie. Jessie’s gang is the Fly-by-Nights. She loves the ancient, skeletal Florian and his memories of time gone by. She’s in love with Joe, a maggot-infested corpse. They fight, hunt, dance together as one—something humans can never understand. There are dark places humans have learned to avoid, lest they run into the zombie gangs.
But now, Jessie and the Fly-by-Nights have seen new creatures in the woods—things not human and not zombie. A strange new illness has flamed up out of nowhere, causing the undeads to become more alive and the living to exist on the brink of death. As bits and pieces of the truth fall around Jessie, like the flesh off her bones, she’ll have to choose between looking away or staring down the madness—and hanging onto everything she has come to know as life…

I have never read a zombie book but this one has got my attention.
hey, I'm really sorry guys; this isn't an international contest :( sorry for the mix up
the question: I don't know much about zombies but I thought they were afraid of fire. At any rate. i prefer a firearm of some sort. i would hate to get close enough to a zombie to set it on fire!
What would I do? Ah ha, yes. I would run while 'pfffting', running my fingers through my hair and screaming wildly. Then when I trip and fall, I'll roll over and push myself back as the zombie stands tall over me. The zombie will want to do whatever zombies do (lol- haven't read a zombie book!!!) but then there will be this strobe of glittering light that comes from behind the zombie.
*PHEW* Edward saved me ;-)
Hahahah. Yeah, I think I need to find a Surviving Zombies book just in case.

How to survive an outbreak of zombies? Watch the movie Zombieland! It's hysterically funny and it has every tip you need like Cardio! and The Double Tap! It's funny and informative.
I'm not entering the contest, but I do have an award for you back at my blog! Congrats! :)
To survive a zombie apocalypse, I would entrench myself in a Costco for as long as possible. :)

I'm a big wimp, so I'd probably hide under my bed and try not to whimper.

Hmmm... to survive the zombies I'd store away inside and ice cream truck or something. And and tip for zombie survival: If you're boyfriends tells you you're good enough to devour, run.

Anything. Grab as many weapons as needed. Maybe I’d learn some martial arts to kick off some heads and stuff!

I've never heard of this before but after seeing your vlog, it's something I'm interested in!
My info: Amber Mitchell- potterhead22@yahoo.com
My answer: The first thing I'd do is grab my copy of Zombieland and start taking notes. They survived so they have to know something!

I would learn mind control and take over the zombies to create my own personal zombie army.
Whoo Hoo Number 1 rule is RUN!! Zombies are usually slow :)

I'm not sure that I would be able to outrun a zombie, so I would have to be resourceful. I would grab some sporks and use those to fend off the zombies since zombies are only afraid of something as unnatural as themselves. And after all, what is more unnatural than a combination of a fork and a spoon?

If there was a zombie outbreak I would definitly be grabbing my shotgun, since I would prefer not to be eaten.
