When a mutated virus escapes the university laboratory vault that it’s been locked away in for more than 75 years, it initiates chaos unforeseen. In vain attempt to staunch the virus’ spread, nuclear warheads are launched against the U.S., killing millions. The strike creates a thick corridor of radiation along the west coat and throws metric tons of ash into the atmosphere, and an already plague-ridden world is plunged into darkness. Sisters Evie and Julie Elderwood are living in a mid-apocalyptic world - if living it what you could call it. Fleeing home after watching everything fall apart and stretching toward rumors of a thriving sanctuary, they discover what it means to prop themselves up for the first time in their lives. Those infected with the virus are far from the only danger in a civilization turned wilderness.
I finally got this monster edited! I’d hoped to have it done in time for Christmas, but it turned out I just barely got it up on Amazon before New Year’s.
The book’s backbone is the pair of sisters it revolves around. Now, it is a zombie novel. There are zombies, a zombie apocalypse, and the gore and violence associated. There’s also a bit of violence between the living, as well as two scenes containing violence against women (one is semi-graphic and triggery, the other not graphic at all, and I’ll spoil in private if anyone needs). I talked about those in an earlier post. The sisters absolutely have a hard time on their journey because of the nature of the world they live in, but the violence present is not there for the sake of the reader’s titillation, and I did my damnedest to consciously not cater to the male gaze. The apocalypse (and particularly zombie) genre is geared toward men by too big a lion’s share. I wrote this to be as serving to women as I could - to be something I would enjoy reading, about girls who survive and grow and have actual feelings about what’s happening, instead of another book all about the misogynistic assholes with machetes victimizing everyone they crossed paths with.
Husk is available in both paperback and ebook form. Paperbacks are 550 pages and available here on CreateSpace, as well as here on Amazon itself. The ebook is available here on Amazon.
The ebook is $7.99 and the paperback is $22 in both shops. I receive $5 in royalties if you buy either edition from either of the Amazon links (not much, but it’s something), but $10 if you buy a paperback directly from CreateSpace (which is Amazon’s publishing site).
Also! If you enjoy it after reading, please return to the book’s page on Amazon and leave a review, even if it’s some short observation. Every single nice review helps!
My Amazon author page, where this and all future publications under this pen name will be listed. If you happen to search me by name on the site, it autocorrects to Elizabeth with a Z, which is not me. You have to click on “search instead for Elisabeth S Elliott” under the search bar because Amazon is picky.
Thank you for your time, if you’ve gotten this far, and I hope some of you feel like buying and reading!
Y’ALL LOOK WHAT MY BABY MAMA DID
This sounds great.
Zombies and Dinosaurs!
Some of the zombies could think and change their appearance. I had been in a coma for 3 years, no idea how I survived the apocalypse! Apparently the radiation caused dinosaurs to evolve again. The land was green and lush and dinosaurs were roaming everywhere. We had to get inside as the smoke from the cigarette was attracting them. There were also cats everywhere that we had to keep out. How it started? My group was all human and killing zombies. Me and one member of the group found another group of humans but then something happened. I don’t know what but my “buddy” pissed them off and they ate him, revealing their zombie nature! They transformed from normal humans to rotten ghouls, like in fallout. I think I ran, but somehow I knew they wanted to talk, so I went back with the leader of our group (rick from walking dead, obviously) and another person, a woman I think, who also knew about their true identity. One of them almost let their identity slip when she started talking about her First World War experiences and things she remembered from the thirties. Something happened and rick realised they were “zombies”. Understandably he went a bit mental, and I had to pin him down to stop him starting a fight that we were blatantly going to lose. I explained that they weren’t a danger; they were just scared that we may be a threat to them, and wanted to check us out. They had only killed the other guy because he had threatened them directly. And they were hungry. I glossed over this quite a lot! And this is when we went out for a calm down cigarette and I noticed all the dinosaurs for the first time. I was watching the birds; what I at first thought was a goose a long way off came closer, and I realised it was a pteradon! When I looked around the distant hills I was amazed to see T-Rex and several larger dinosaurs too. Best dream ever.
Forgot about this! Epic dream.

also, duct tape on your arms, a few layers, but not too tight. basically it’ll stop a zombie taking a chunk out of your arm if you’re reloading or your blade gets jammed in a zombie
wearing a wetsuit underneath your clothing would also be useful. remember; they were human once, humans have blunt teeth! you try biting through duct tape AND a wet suit
never duct tape joints, your movements will be limited, and you want to be fast and danger (gotta go fast)
don’t hole up in small houses either that’s a recipe for disaster, you want somewhere with a secure upstairs, and a way down from the upstairs that is zombie free or can easily be cleared of zombies (avoid fire exits with steps leading up to them though, unless they have gates at the bottom)
sound = attraction, so if you do have guns, use them only in emergencies or for the sake of popping one head you’ll be greeted with many many more
raid your local medical shops, and get there first, nobody is going to stop and share it out equally while they’re panicking. don’t hit out at somebody unless they hit out at you, though, you already have unintelligent corpses pitted against you, you don’t want sentient humans on your case as well (zombies don’t do the revenge thing, humans do!)
try not to piss people off, because as stated before, yes, humans like revenge
don’t try and be clever and use yourself as live bait; yes playing the hero is glorious in movies, but it doesn’t work so glamorously in real life
large numbers isn’t a good idea. you want small groups, even if you just branch out from being in a larger group, because if there’s a lot of you you are a bigger target, but don’t then go off and decide to be in groups that are too small in case you get surrounded (in which case, the duct tape and wet suits will come in handy)
food shouldn’t be that hard to come by, most people would have attempted to flee the area straight from their houses and packed what they had, raiding local shops could still be worth it. but remember, know your way in, your way out, and double check there’s nothing in the shop ready to sneak up behind you while you’re reaching up for that tin of beans
half balaclava masks or something similar to cover your lower face while fighting zombies could also be useful, you don;t want to accidentally ingest flying zombie fluids and end up one of them, that’d be a nasty surprise for your group to wake up to (since going solo possibly isn’t a good idea)
and always, ALWAYS, have a way to start a fire on you
zombies burn
I love my followers so you need to protect yourselves.
I hope you're taking notes!
So glad I quit now! Although if there was ever a time when a craving’s gonna getcha…

Timur Khabirov - Bond ! James Bond !
Texas-based artist and Instructables contributor tchitwood created this awesomely gruesome Walking Dead Zombie Cake. She modeled the cake after one of special effects creator, director, and actor Greg Nicotero’s own appearances on The Walking Dead. He’s thoroughly revolting to behold, but being made of nothing but cake, frosting, and hand-painted fondant, we’re sure he’s completely delicious.
