Listening to the extended zombie discussion on the PoP Cast from a few weeks ago and seeing how much interest you guys had in it gave me an idea. I have formulated and started a zombie story that has suffered a writer's block and may never get written.

Unless...

It occurred to me today that the fans and members of PoP and TAS might want to help collaborate with me on finishing the story, and then if it was good, we could turn it into a print-on-demand book with Lulu or something similar and try to sell it to the world, giving any and all proceeds (I'm betting we'll sell literally tens of books) to PoP and TAS.

Here's what I have:
  • 33 pages of a rough draft of the beginning of the story
  • Some email discussions between me and another friend of the show talking about how things may progress and giving a full theory behind how the zombies work, how the infection is spread, and its strengths and weaknesses.

Here's what I propose:
  • If you're interested in getting involved, let me know with a post here or on the duplicate thread I will put on the PoP forum.
  • I'll put everything in a Google Docs folder that we can share and send you an invitation to participate so we can collab on writing the rough for the whole story.
  • I'll take all of it and write the story from this rough so it's all in one voice.
  • We'll get someone with some editing skill to go through it and cross all the 't's.
  • We'll get a final draft put together, including a credits section naming all involved int he project, and submit it to a print-on-demand publisher, and get it made in regular and eBook formats
  • All of the collaborators and both of our sites and shows will go on a promotion blitz online to see if we can sell this thing.

What do you think?
