By the way, taking something outlandish and writing it down as if it were real is a style called Magic Realism. It's one of my favorite styles actually. I think that's part of what got me into trouble *cough cough* earlier this morning with one of my friends. I started from the everyday or the mundane (my vegetable garden, my trip to the hardware store, talking about my recent illness...things I usually talk about every day because that's what I know best) and then gradually made it more and more absurd.

That, and I figured that a zombie invasion would start out that way. A couple of isolated incidents here and there...some random attacks...nobody knowing exactly what was going on...and then boom! Crisis!
