Bath Salt Zombie

Caterina Torres has offered to post on my blog today about bath salts and zombies. If you haven't heard about it, back in May, a man on drugs was shot by police after he was caught eating a homeless man's face while in the nude. Read more about it here. A lot of people were talking about the effects of bath salts for awhile, which many people take as a type of recreational drug, and whether it had the ability to turn people into zombies.

Here are her thoughts:

I know, it might seem like it’s a bit late to write about this, but the bath salt zombie fiasco was huge for a while. And if anything, it helped bring back the zombie craze.

I’m the author of Zombie Whisperer, and yes, I love zombies. No, I’ve never met one in person. The reason I picked that topic for my first book was because zombies are our greatest threat. Think about it – people we once knew turn on us and try to eat our brains.

Come on, can’t get any scarier than that.

There’s also a strong possibility it could scientifically happen. There are parasites, toxins, viruses, nanomachines, and more. (I name two of those in my book as the cause of my zombie outbreak)

But then the unthinkable happens – people snort bath salts and turn into zombies.

Huh? Since when did bath salts become dangerous?

Looks like the government better keep a tighter seal on those nasty smelling water enhancers.

*giggles*

So next time you think it’s impossible for a zombie apocalypse to occur because you’ve already ruled out all of the above, just think of the possibilities for other types of ‘bath salts’ people will snort to get high. And stock up on some ammo and food.

Hey, I’m just saying.

She can speak to the dead. Only problem is, they’re still walking around.

After enduring a week-long flu, Jane Smith wakes to find out a  terrorist organization has spread a deadly virus over the nation, changing anyone who’s infected into the walking dead. With no choice but to flee her home, Jane teams up with her boyfriend, Josh Williams, as  they venture to find something better than the desolate land that was  once called the home of the brave and the land of the free.

Driving across the country, Jane encounters some of the newly turned and finds she can hear their thoughts inside her head. Before she can understand her link to the undead, Jane and Josh are captured by the terrorists responsible for the virus because of one special reason: they know she can communicate with the infected and they want her to be a part of their fight to take down the rest of the world.

Afraid for their lives, Jane must decide if she should join the terrorists or use her new found powers to stop them.

My name is Caterina Torres. I am in my mid-twenties and I graduated with a BA in Anthropology and a minor in Humanities. I truly aspire to be a writer and I hope you enjoy my books.

Nah, doesn’t sound interesting enough. How about this:

The name I go by is Cat and I love to write about the apocalypse, but not in the biblical sense of the word. Any sort of dystopian, end of the world stories seriously interest me. I guess it has a lot to do with being part of the rat race of life, trying to climb the great ladder of success.

Regular life just seems so…boring.
