Believe it or not, it came to me in a dream - actually more of a nightmare. I remember the dream, my best friend had disappeared and no one was helping me find her, safe to say I woke up in tears but with a pretty sick story to write!
Story-wise I have a plan and I know exactly where I want the story to go and sort of how I want it to end. However, my issue is perfecting chapters which can lead to a delay in publishing. It takes a while for me to write a chapter but then ill look back on it and feel like it wasn't good enough which leads to me taking a while to publish. I was inspired by so many great writers on this app I just feel that all my readers deserve to read something perfect :)

From the comments I have received, it seems pretty good but I would definitely love to hear more opinions! Hopefully good ones haha :)
Honestly watching the story come to life has been so exciting. Reading back on the characters I created has made me so happy!
At the moment its a series and I have three separate parts in mind, maybe even four but well shall see :)
Definitely the importance of friendship! I love my friends and there isn't a single thing I wouldn't do for them, for my bestie I would probably do what my main protagonist Anya did :)

Make a schedule!!!!!!! Find time to write! Also do not focus on the views, sometimes they can be disheartening but they'll come with time!
It's funny actually, initially when I was writing it I didn't think she did and then when I was reading it back I questioned if I should change her name to my first name since it was quite obviously me! Her ability to sweet talk, the way she helps her friends and even her stubbornness is all very similar to me

Those Zombies Again
One day Sam wakes up in a world full of zombies and tries to survive.PSFirst of all i would not recommend this novel if you haven't read like hundred of novels already. Its pretty weird and depressing novel.This story is told almost completely from MC point of view. Third person.MC is a pretty ugly random guy with different psychological problems. He is antisocial and limited person.Lore - Since MC is limited and barely interested in people or just surroundings, you will get pretty limited descriptions on stuff, it was meant to be like that.Characters - Obviously for the same reason, you will not see much characters, usually you wont get their description or even names.Fights - I personally hate those fights in novels which take like few chapters to describe some shitty encounters. For example MC is making his "move" and then you get half chapter of description of his thoughts and the ways his face is looking, and the way like his opponent surprised and the way crowd is reacting and so on. I really hate all that shit so fights in this novel will be described not that often, only if an equal or a new opponent, and only in a strict and straightforward way, no bullshit.Now this novel is not exactly fantasy, its more like grim realistic-fantasy.But i will have to explain what i mean. Lets take rape in most novels as an example. Usually MC will be justified to rape a girl one way or another. Common example is aphrodisiac. Or the girl were trying to kill him so he had to "punish" her. Or she just happened to jump on his thing and then after rape she become his girlfriend etc, Those are examples of "fan service" in novel. So MC would be justified and readers woun't feel too uncomfortable to read something like that.So there is no "fan service" in this novel, like at all. You will have to read some stuff that will make you feel uncomfortable and you woun't like it.Common sense also means that there is barely gonna be any "random" events which MC is gonna be part of. No treasures and superpowers he founds because he is "special". He will not meet antagonists on his way.This novels world will not spin around MC in any way. He will usually sit in his deep cave and no one around will give a damn about him or even know of his existence.So this novel is not for you to have fun and enjoy reading. Not to make you feel comfortable, satisfied or happy.Its probably the opposite.There are some standards which novel usually sticks to in order to become popular. Obviously i did not meet those standards at all.
