I'm actually working on a apocalyptic story at the moment, and I'm going to be completely honest when I mention this part. I've pretty much have all my ideas planned out, and it's going to be a series not a standalone story. Which means I already know how the story is going to end, all the plot points are mapped out in my head and just incase I forgot I wrote em down on paper for backup purposes.
Without revealing too much I'll give you a brief synopsis of what the story is out:
Set in the year of 2079, more than 90% of the world's population have been consumed by The seeker virus. In Los Angeles California, a 15 year old boy finds himself in a hotel room with no memory of his past except for his name, Light due to the dog-tag around his neck. In Allen, Texas a 14 1/2 year old girl named Crysta Jane has a goal to search for her boyfriend who's been missing for two years. In New York, a 13 year old girl Sky Malhotra is held in custody by an surviving FBI agent who believes She has a connection with the virus due to a jar she kept before being imprisoned.
As you can tell it's not gonna focus on just one single character, but three because there wouldn't be much happening if it was only through one perspective. So you'll get to see just where these characters go once I able to get it published (which hopefully happens next year).
As far Book titles are concerned I'll tell you:
Only the first one: Zero
One final not the seeker virus doesn't turn anyone into Zombies, it makes the Iris within an infected human (Seeker) their blood-shot red, and they are just as intelligent as humans. However, the seekers are all connected through a single hivemind (The Alpha) who was the one that caused this catastrophic event on the world.
