HANDLING THE UNDEAD by John Ajvide Lindqvist

January 2, 2011 by Craig DiLouie Leave a Comment

handling the undeadJust finished John Ajvide Lindqvist’s HANDLING THE UNDEAD. Not your traditional zombie fare in any way, a little slow, and with a somewhat unsatisfying ending (a major story line ends without resolution), but a highly original, entertaining and emotionally charged story about what would happen if our loved ones came back from the dead.

(By the way, I was a bit surprised by the image used for the cover, which had already been used for a cover for another zombie novel by a fairly prominent author. I saw a similar duplication with another two zombie novels recently. Stock photos are open source images but one would think cover designers would want their work to be somewhat original, and not duplicate other works in the field.)

Some Advice For Survival Horror Writers

October 15, 2010 by Craig DiLouie Leave a Comment

Interested in writing a work of survival horror? I remember author David Moody talking about his thought process in developing his stories. He said something to this effect: Go into any crowded public place, imagine something or somebody going haywire, and then picture the result. It’s great, simple advice. The best stories in this genre, after all, are those about ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances.
