“It was easy to feel insignificant, here in this grand room built by a long-lost civilization, with a mysterious and deadly adversary commanding em to vanish, but Horace had not chosen this adventure to abandon it. E may not be skilled, but e was stubborn and dedicated, and not so easy to get rid of.”

The Greenland Diaries: Day 34

Gerald and I discussed what happened yesterday at Rainbow Foods. People were already beginning to mark their territories and protect food sources. Why did people have to become so greedy?

I’d read all those apocalyptic stories and such, and there’d be chapters about how people turn on one another. Cannibalism, fighting, and torture were just a few issues you’d see in those books. I always thought they were just more plot devices for us to stagger through as readers.

It’d been nice to be wrong.

We decided to at least clear out the empty houses around us before exploring another store. From what we could tell, nobody lived in our surrounding blocks except that one house with the children hiding. We would leave them alone until they came out. There was no point in scaring or acting like they were safer with us. We didn’t want to be their end.

We explored ten houses. Eight of them showed no signs of struggle or habitation. We found a plethora of canned goods and dried food. In the last two we found a few bloody rooms with torn clothing and dried piles of blood.

I’ve grown immune to the smell of blood. Even if it’s been simmering in the hot sun in this never-changing climate.

My mom had one of those super noses. One time a rotten potato fell between the counter and the wall at my parent’s house. She easily tracked the sour smell like a bloodhound. She’d be going crazy with all the smells drifting through the current air. Oil, smoke, melted plastic and skin, and a sweet perfume smell that wrinkles out from the flowers in a wavy haze.

What does it do?

Gerald and I ate dinner together. We’ve started talking about our past lives a little bit more. At the onset of everything we’d never really mention our families or friends. It hurt too much. Our old lives weren’t that far away at the beginning of the Drum. Now, they were a world of fantasy and memory. I’ve noticed my dreams are featuring more and more people. My parents, my sister, my girlfriend, everyone really.

It’s better than nothing.

Best way to start the Christmas season is with faceless monsters and an apocalyptic journal. Santa would enjoy it.

Free Book Weekend

Back at the top of my free book promotion rotation. Next up is my favorite book I’ve written (sadly not my most popular, that spot is reserved for the Greenland Diaries) the dark fantasy epic Beware the Ills. It is FREE today and tomorrow on the Kindle. Description below:

For the last 30 years he has been the sole protector of the legendary Diamond Town. Every hour it snows, howls, and storms. Every week, wave after wave of invaders crawl through the woods scouring for a bit of fame and glory on this lost island — and he cuts them all down with indiscriminate slashes of his sword. No one has survived being the Guardian as long as him, and the shadows are seething with vengeance in the forests and mountains. A vengeful cannibal from a lost invasion, ancient beasts stalking about the mountains waiting to attack, and a fresh new batch of invaders with a beautiful berserker and emotionless captain are just a few of the festering plagues on this cursed island. There will be no respite. There will be no end to the war and strife. The winters are growing longer, the cold harsher, and the enemies bolder. Take a walk in the footsteps of the Diamond Town’s Guardian and his world, through his own blood-weary eyes. Count your footsteps and mind the silence, it’s time to hunt, and to fill the graveyard again.
