Another Character Drawing...

Hope everyone is having a good day. About to start writing the last book, but I did another drawing of another main character (viewable on Instagram and Twitter). This one I think I drew the nose too long. But I did my best. Here is: Avery.

Aside from that, enjoying the music of Linkin Park and Fort Minor.
I will be sharing short parts from the final book. It should be much longer than the other books.
So, look forward to When It Ends.

Love

Drawing The Main Characters

Checking in. Going to start the final book of the series soon. There will be more of the SGC and their background is further looked into. As well as more characters.
During my free time today, I decided to draw what the characters look like (from my imagination of course) and so far, I have drawn one.
So, here is the first one that will be available to see on the home page: Alex.


Love

(Blogger won't let me add it here, so the link below should take you to my Instagram where the drawing is available)

Looking forward to letting everyone know.

Finishing Apocalypse World/Survive

Hello, hope everyone's day has been decent. Mine started out well, took an odd turn, and then back to normal. Finished Survive, proofreading is almost done and then it will be ready on Createspace and Amazon soon.
Much is revealed in Survive. Now, I'm close to the ending of the series, which is titled When It Ends.
From the little part I revealed from Survive the other day, you learn of the SGC, the infamous group that the character Seth mentions in Apocalypse World.
When It Ends will be available in the months to come.
I am also working on other stories (currently of different genres: Drama, romance, comedy, and horror). The horror story should be ready by Halloween.
For now, relaxation and pretty soon, I'll announce Apocalypse World/Survive.


Love

A Little Free Time To Share

Taking a break for a bit from working on Survive. If you learned anything about me, you may have gotten it that for my writing process, I like to have coffee and listen to music. I know I can't be the only one, but when writing, I like to listen to certain music genres. It's kind of like a "sound track" to my writing that fits the mood.
If When The Dead Came series had an actual sound track, it would consist of rock and metal music. While writing, I set up a playlist, and in the playlist for my series, there are songs by: Linkin Park (The Catalyst), Chevelle (Get Some), Korn (Narcissistic Cannibal), Mushroomhead (Simple Survival), In This Moment (Sick Like Me), Muse (Take A Bow), Deuce (Bad Attitude), 30 Seconds To Mars (The Kill), System Of A Down (Suggestions), Avenged Sevenfold (Tonight The World Dies), Marilyn Manson (The Nobodies), Tool (Sober), A Perfect Circle (Judith), Nine Inch Nails (Survivalism), Hollywood Undead (Been To Hell), Breaking Benjamin (Blow Me Away), Three Days Grace (Get Out Alive) and so on.
Paradise Lost and When They Come For Me are pretty good songs.
But I'm just passing the time here. Any other interesting songs that you think could fit into a zombie based film or book? Or would you agree with me that rock and metal are great choices?

Survive Again

Hello, hope your day is going well. Been writing as much as I can today, and keep stopping due to messages on Skype. Listening to music, drinking coffee. Almost ready to release Apocalypse World and Survive together. Sharing another short preview to Survive that, I think, will give a hint as to the introduction of a group of people:

Chase snapped his fingers and looked at his group.
" The recording! We heard it and have been trying to find you. You will be happy to know that your search is done. We are the SGC."

Thanks for reading!

Checking In

Good afternoon and hope your day is going well. Having some coffee and about to continue working on Survive and then it'll be ready to be released. Have an entire stack of papers and notebooks that are in need of a binder or a filing cabinet one day.
I guess out of the series, Survive will have the most surprises.
Also, just to let everyone know, the website I created back in 2014 can't be updated. My laptop is still not working plus don't have internet access. The site I created it on does not support my phone (device as it read), so someday in the future, it will be updated.
If you read the little bit I shared from Survive, then you know Avery ends up alone. Will be sharing more later. For now, thought I would post and share whatever I'm thinking. Gonna enjoy coffee, listen to music, and begin writing again.

A Little Taste of Survive

As promised, more posts and this one, I am sharing a little bit of Survive, the fourth book that will be released with Apocalypse World. If you have read Apocalypse World, then you know the surprise that happens. In Survive, there will be more surprises as well as characters dying. Won't tell who yet, but here is a bit from Survive:

Dropping her bag down, Avery dropped to the floor and laid there, staring up at a painted ceiling. Ducks and other random animals were smiling down at her. She rolled over onto her right side and shut her eyes tightly, swallowing the sadness and resting her head on her blood covered hands.
She was already missing everyone. Missing Alex so much that she expected to open her eyes and see him lying across from her. For the first time, Avery knew that she wouldn't reunite with anyone. She was alone. In this city, it is just her and the infected.


Thanks for reading!

Welcome Back!

Hello everyone! It has certainly been a long time. Have to do all my promoting on my phone and I realize how hard it is to do that. Anyways, you may have noticed the link below this post. Well, I have rewritten the first two books. Basically the same, but with more, pretty much like the "uncut" version like a movie. I have added more detail, a bit more violence, and a lot more language use.
Are there any new characters? No, not yet anyways. The main characters have remained as always: Holly, Avery, Jenny, Keith, and the brothers Justin and Alex. This book is a second edition, very simply titled When The Dead Came 1 & 2. It's like a two in one book.
So join the survivors as they learn to survive in a virus ridden world, meet the first survivalist group they meet (the SGO, Survivalist Group of Ohio), and yes, I gave in and added a little bit of romance. Don't worry though, it won't always be in the series, it will still be more of an apocalyptic setting and not a romance setting. Hope you enjoy and I will be back to posting as often as possible.
Oh, and coming soon, another double release: Apocalypse World/Survive. (Survive hasn't been released nor shared with you yet, but I will be sharing a few lines from that particular book).


Thanks!!
Ariana
