You’re all going to die. Many of you violently or very messily.
Sorry about that.
If you’ve read my story BloodWalker or the snippets and promo blurbs I’ve done for my novel Corpse Blood you know that the premise of that urban fantasy world is that a horrible, messy, blood borne disease has killed off most of the humans and exposed the supernatural creatures living among us. the sudden population drop has also led to the return of the true human psychic (a la Merlin).
Well the project I’m working on right now, Plague Lives is a paranormal bio-horror tale about the outbreak itself. The thing about pandemic novels though is that there’s a huge body count. There has to be a huge body count to get our world to the point where I’ve already put the Bloodwalker world.
And since I’m trying to get over my habit of not naming non central characters, specifically because it doesn’t make sense not to name names, and the scope of this story is rather large and has to be to make it work, I’ve been giving small time characters the names of people I know.
Often times these characters are never seen, just mentioned. Or, I’ll mix up names and faces. I’d like to say you all live, but that’s just not possible. Many of you will die.
If you don’t want to be tuckerized feel free to tell me. If you definitely want to be tuckerized, also feel free to tell me. Remember that I adore you all, and I wouldn’t kill you off if I didn’t think it was necessary. Cross my heart and well, you know…*wink*
