Hey Jay,
First, well, I’m a HUGE zombie fan, so when I started reading your story, I was really excited…:)
I enjoyed your story telling and style, and the fact that you use great descriptives in a simple manner. Came across a few words we don’t see often enough, and that made me smile.
I wish you had worked the ending a bit more - I felt like it unravelled too fast for me. I understand what you’re going for at the end, but I would make it a bit longer to let the feeling linger, and to allow for that last idea to seep a little more in the mind…
Very enjoyable read, thanks for sharing!
