This is something I wrote ages ago, as a way of testing the water, I thought I'd offer it for review. Thanks.

Ok... The point of this is not to write like douglas adams (At all) and you do it from the of "The hitchikers quide to the galaxy" It is to form your own ideas, fine, writing about how to survive a zombie attack would be funny, but don't write it like an excerpt from the books. Find your own style, find your own topics, find your own muse

In fact you could actually just remove the first sentence and rewrite it to make it less DNA esq

Yeah, I can see where you're going with that. That bit probably isn't as cool as a I thought it was when I wrote this up. Good thinking.

I mean it other than that it looks ok So don't feel too bad but you can see what would be wrong with everyone writing the same stuff over and over "The Hitchikers guide to the galaxy says this ..." not to mention the copywright infringements

I enjoyed this. So much to learn about the great undaead isn't there?! This is the sort of thing one needs for those trips to Haiti, or even the bayou down New Orleans way...

It ain't zombies but inebriated Cajuns that be the main danger in The Big Easy . And Haiti being so poverty stricken, a body had best watch out for the living as well as the undead

Thanks for submitting this. Read it though several times. Never miss a zombie movie. I think you've hit upon most of the important points. You might think about mentioning that when you leave the country, make absolutely sure that your co-survivors are not suffering from delayed effects from a Zombie bite.
But seriously, enjoyed reading it.
