Haven't read it but if that's the title of the book, weirdest one I've ever encountered.


xD

Kind of, but not really.
That was something I used for a short story many many years ago, which this story is kind of based on. I've never taken Latin, and I wanted something along the lines of "Eternal Death" or something like that, since it's a zombie story.

I'm planning on changing it, that's really more of a temporary title.

Let me know when you do read it!
Always looking for more feedback.

I like the way you write, certainly a better writer then myself. But this feels so much like the walking dead!

Thank you very much for reading, glad you enjoyed it.

Do you have any negative criticisms?
I'm looking for some areas to improve on in my writing, as I'm sure there's something.

One thing I know I'll have trouble with is character development, but I haven't written enough to get into the character(s) yet.
However, there's probably something in the two chapters I've posted that needs to be fixed, and that's one reason why I posted up here xD

Thanks again.

Quite decent tbh. Not really my type of reads but w/e. Thought about the character development aswell, only 2 chaps though but feels like it's lacking some? Like it's not personal? Dno how to really express it :/ It seems very monotone (I think thats the word I'm searching for) no emotions or so, perhaps you could elaborate feelings and such? As I imagine in a zombie apocalypse you'll have either a stone feelings, or you'll have emotions that will be like the waves up and down. I dno really :/ First time I read somethign like this so I can't really criticize, just my opinion :>

Well thanks for reading!

That's pretty much how I was thinking about it, as "impersonal." Although the two chapters isn't a lot of time to get to know any characters, I'm sure there's something I have done or will do wrong.
I think before I get too much farther into the story, I'm going to do a little research on how to improve my character development.

Mhh, well that's really the only thing I can say was lacking. And true you won't get a grasp in the 2 first chaps (usually) how the characters are and so, but you want a HINT of it at least. So you'll know if you want to continue or not

But as you've said before you ain't used to writing (and I know myself when I've done school work about writing a text that it's SUPER HARD) but overall I have to say it's good. More 'mature' language and not a lot of "OMFG BBQ 420 NOSCOPE" stuff (if you catch me drift) that you might see in novels that's more for the teen audience(younger).

Go on writing tbh :> I'll read every update for sure^Got another friend of mine who's got 16 chaps out in his medieval fiction fantasy book :> And I adooore it!

Sorry xD
I guess I have no excuse now not to be writing, since I'm on summer break.
I'll try to write more and when I do, I'll be sure to post it.
