Tell me I’m wrong lmao
Screenshot from alicewriterszombies’ tumblr post, reading, “Being a writer is having way too many ideas and not enough time to cultivate them but trying to anyway, so you end up working on multiple projects and have others tucked away in folders, yet you never stop thinking about any of them, and they’re just poking at your brain day and night, egging you on like some sort of playground bully.”

Christmas? Horror? Zombies?

Who’s up for it?

RED CHRISTMAS.

“Snow would never look white again…”

Preston navigates a pitch-black, zombie-riddled mall to retrieve the final piece needed to complete a tribute to his late mother…

(Yes, there’s a zombie mall Santa).

The book cover for Alice B. Sullivan’s RED CHRISTMAS. A red ornament reflects the image of a young, brunette man in a heavy winter coat, holding a knife and facing a group of zombies dressed as elves and Santa that had busted through a doorway. RED is in red font and left-aligned atop Christmas, which is in white font.

I am tired. I have work. But I plan to write more of my lesbians later. Very excited for that.

If you want to know what I mean, see the attached screenshot 😌

This excerpt comes from Book 2 in AFTERMATH. Release date next year ?? 😅

I didn’t draw this, but my cover artist did. I commissioned him to bring to life a favorite scene of mine from a book I published, and he smacked it!

And yes, they’re lesbians, and it’s a slow burn romance situation.

An image depicting characters from Alice B. Sullivan’s novel YESTERDAY’S GONE. Two women standing across the street from two story houses. The blonde woman, Sadie, wearing a brown jacket and backpack is pressed against a rusty truck, a faint blush dancing on across her cheeks as a blade’s tip coaxes her chin to rise. Holding the knife is a silver-haired woman, Jess, wearing a gray shirt, brown scarf, and sunglasses. She’s holding her finger over her smirk so as to ensure the blonde woman remains quiet.

A screenshot of an Instagram post from GBHBL. The image is the title of Alice B. Sullivan’s zombie outbreak novella, THE COLLAPSE, and the body is a shortened version of their review: “From self-published author Alice B. Sullivan, comes a zombie apocalypse story called The Collapse: Book 0. Alice B. Sullivan proves to be a deft writer who knows exactly what is needed to make zombie fiction interesting.”

Yes! This [zombie] book follows Sadie, whose persistence not only gets the better of her, it unintentionally puts her home at risk when a self-seeking mission sets in motion a series of events that unravel a past she never even knew she had, unearthing secrets about her family & the virus itself.

If anyone's still wondering if they should give my zombie novel a chance (did I mention the dog doesn't die?), here's the opening:

The silver-haired woman in the picture? Her name’s Jess & she really does drive Sadie crazy-in a “why does this fluster me, omg she’s smiling, holy crap my heart’s beating fast” kind of way & here’s some out-of-context dialogue to get a sense of her personality!

YESTERDAY’S GONE launches Oct. 31. I’ve decided to send out ARCs (due date on the Google form).

It has:

A strong female protagonist, an unlikely dog breed companion who DOESN’T die, lesbian slow-burn romance foundation, gay panic, found family, and zombies.

The book cover for Alice B. Sullivan’s dystopian, zombie fiction novel YESTERDAY’S GONE. On the cover is a derelict road whose street sign marking TIMES SQUARE has fallen next to a collapsed stoplight over a puddle reflecting off-screen skyscrapers. Standing in the road is a blonde woman in boots, jeans, and a sweatshirt, carrying a backpack, with determination etched into her features. Next to her is a brown and black Yorkshire Terrier dog. The blonde woman casts 3 shadows hand-in-hand onto the cracked pavement—on either side is a shadow representing her mother and father, and in the center is a shadow representing the blonde woman as a child. At the top of the cover is the author’s name ALICE B. SULLIVAN, and next to the blonde woman, is white, unstable font is the title YESTERDAY’S GONE.

Image is the front cover of ALICE B. SULLIVAN'S zombie book YESTERDAY'S GONE. A blonde woman, hair ina messy bun, wearing a sweatshirt, jeans, boots, and a backpack, along with her brown- and black-haired Yorkshire Terrier dog, stands in the middle of a rundown road whose concrete has cracked. A stop light lay broken across the pavement, next to a puddle reflecting skyscrapers found in New York City. A road sign, bent and displaced on the sidewalk, reads "Times Square." Looking over her shoulder, determination and anger etched into her features, the woman towers over a shadow depicting a father and mother holding a little girl's hands. The title, YESTERDAY'S GONE is written in broken letters along the top of the image, and along the bottom is the author's name, ALICE B. SULLIVAN. Image is the back cover of ALICE B. SULLIVAN'S zombie book YESTERDAY'S GONE. The image depicts a forelorn parking lot, pavement cracked and overgrown with weeds, with two orange and white striped, dirty traffic cones sitting by a curb. Across the top of the cover is the quote: "When the world falls apart, it doesn’t matter how. It’s who’s left to rebuild." The blurb is sitting over an opaque black box and is too long to add to alt text without being cut off.

A screenshot of a 4 star Goodreads review whose reviewer’s username has been blacked out for privacy reasons, for THE COLLAPSE, a zombie outbreak book, by Alice B. Sullivan. The review reads: “This was actually so much better than I was expecting. It started off a bit slow, but I was undoubtedly hooked by the end of it and struggling to put it down. Even though I knew this was a zombie story, so of course bad stuff will happen, I wasn't expecting the way it came to an end.”

Image depicting Google translate. Left side of the text box at the top reads English - detected, translating “I love you.” Right side of the text box at the top reads Jess, translation as a bullet list: takes care of your dog, a quote “Let me help you,” a quote “Get her name off your tongue or I’ll rip it out”, gay panic when you smile or laugh, and a quote “Sunshine.”

An excerpt from my #postapocalyptic lesbian #romance DESTINATION: TOMORROW…

My lesbians being soft for each other 🥹

www.amazon.com/Destination-...

#zombies #horrorlit #writingcommunity #readingcommunity
A screenshot of text from Alice B. Sullivan’s post-apocalyptic lesbian romance book Destination: Tomorrow. The text reads: She got up and walked toward the kitchen, soon returning with a cloth and bottle. Dabbing the liquid from the bottle onto the cloth, she hummed. “I tried going back once. It was the worst decision I ever made.” Her eyes dulled as the words left her lips. She raised the damp cloth to my face but hesitated. “Can I?” I nodded, and she gently pressed it against the wound. A short wince was a reflex to the cold, but when the moment passed, it was tolerable, even with the pain. “How does it look?” Amusement tugged the corner of her mouth. “Like shit, if you want me to be honest.” I laughed. “And if you weren’t being honest?” A screenshot of text from Alice B. Sullivan’s post-apocalyptic lesbian romance book Destination: Tomorrow. The text reads: She paused and looked at me with unassuming eyes, as if she hadn’t heard what I had asked and was in her own world, calculating and sorting her thoughts before whispering, at last, “You have a nice smile.” “Mm.” A shaky snort burst from my lips. “So, then, I don’t have a nice smile?” Her blank stare slowly gave way to astonishment, and she huffed and shook her head, then continued to scrub, blatantly startled by her own remark as if she was just realizing it.

Now that THE COLLAPSE’s sequel is back with @cknightwrites.bsky.social, I’ll work on my #thelastofus inspired zombie outbreak story set in an elementary school on Halloween, where the concept of #zombies exists in-universe.

A screenshot of text depicting Alice B. Sullivan’s zombie outbreak story, inspired by The Last of Us. The text reads: The mycologist’s heavy footfalls echoed throughout the basement as he stomped to and up the stairs, slamming the door behind him and leaving the lights to flicker above the empty space. The slide that was deemed yet another failure remained under the microscope, the timer left running nearing nineteen minutes. At last, the organism stirred. What started as a few subtle movements evolved into more apparent twitches and then a ripple that vibrated its entire form. Tentacle-like appendages slowly slithered toward the other cells placed there to entice the parasite. By the time the stopwatch had struck twenty minutes, the cells had been completely consumed.

An screenshot of an excerpt from Alice B. Sullivan’s zombie outbreak work in progress. It reads: Worrying her bottom lip between her teeth, Ms. Wheaton dared to take another step toward the girl as her desire to uphold her responsibility as a caregiver barely overpowered the urge to cower like the very children she taught. “Lauren, is everything okay?” Lauren responded with a low, crackling moan.
