And the goddamned Torchwood zombie story is finished and sent off. 4K words and change, the longest thing I've written this year (and there's some cut bits I might add to the director's cut version, along with an alternate ending which I decided to save for another time, because I was burning the midnight oil). "Never Doing That Again" might be longer, but that's a story in parts, and much of it remains to be written, operating words being "remains to be".
Special thanks goes to Buzz Works/Nox Arcana's
"Zombie Influx" album, which got my brain going (braaaain...).
Time to write some fluff. I need it.
