Oz apocafic ?!?

[vanillalime]

Thanks to a recent positive review by the_emu, I just finished reading "World War Z" by Max Brooks, a book about a world-wide zombie apocalypse. I really enjoyed it and found the concept fascinating (yeah, I know I'm a little late to the zombie game). I loved the format of the book, too, written as a series of transcripts of interviews with various survivors.

Anyway, NOW I'm craving ALL THE OZ APOCAFIC THAT EXISTS IN THE ENTIRE WORLD.

I've assembled a list of stories that I know are out there, and here's what I got so far:

Written for oz_magi:

• Island in a Sea of Zack, by marythefan


• Secret by the Unmourning Water, by marythefan


• Equinox, by levitatethis

Written for spook_me:

• Apocalypse, by severina2001


• Chaos Theory, by trillingstar

Written for Oz Graffixation at oz_graffiti:

• The Road (drabble), by cmk418


• A Soul to Steal, by natlet

Written for hardtime100:

• Three Days After the Asteroid Hit, by actizera

No Emerald City series, by catheights


Does anyone know of any other Oz stories out there? (I've already checked the "apocalypse" tag on AO3 and also found a couple of Oz/Buffy the Vampire Slayer crossovers, but I wasn't particularly interested in that combination.)

I believe trillingstar is currently working on a new apocafic story, and hopefully one day I can add it to this list. *nudge, nudge* :D

Oh wow, thank you! That looks like a great story, I'm definitely looking forward to reading it. (And that's pretty obscure journal--I'm amazed that you uncovered it!)

I love your list! I've read most of these, but the one in the comments is completely new to me. How did you find it?

I'll be doing some re-reading!

[vanillalime]

Thank you! I know I've been having a great time this last week reading these stories (or re-reading in some cases). I'm actually fairly inspired to try writing one of my own, except I still have so many other story ideas languishing in my head. I wish my writing ability could keep pace with my imagination!

[ozsaur.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, please do write some apoca-fic! Any kind at all - zombies, epidemic, zombies, nuclear holocaust, zombies, EMP, zombies, worldwide economic collapse, zombies... LOL

I still have so many other story ideas languishing in my head. I wish my writing ability could keep pace with my imagination!

I know what you mean. I have so many ideas, and I can't seem to get even a fraction of them out of my head. And I am also in the same boat - my writing just isn't up to the task of writing many of the ideas that I have.
