The most unrealistic thing about zombie movies is the pretense that we wouldn’t be made to work right through it.

Writers traditionally shed words in May, which can make them awkward and skittish. Don't worry, they aren't sick, don't have rabies, and probably won't bite. If you see one in the middle of it, toppled over, words spilling out of them, just put a cloth or cardboard box over their head. Do not feed!

Ok, I did a free website. I think I am done promoting myself for the next ten years now. Yes I know it still says Canva in the link, but I refuse to pay for a website until writing actually pays me. sljohnson.my.canva.site
