A good young adult zombie book should have three genres: I love a good zombie book. So much so I wrote one myself. So, I know when it comes to a good zombie book there must be a good balance of horror, slice of life and comedy. While zombie books deal with the world ending and, well, the rotting undead, it goes without saying that zombies are scary. Being turned into a vile, rotting and walking corpse is scary. A good zombie book is scary. It’s horror. It should have the reader both disturbed and scared. However, while dealing with this, part of the horror is the world building around it. This is where the “slice of life” should come in. While the world of zombies is focused on such, it should keep in mind that life goes on. It simply goes on with a new enemy.

Introduction: As you all know, I'm in university and this term I've started taking a class on Hester Pulter. This is an incredible situation where not much is known about Pulter, as her manuscript was rediscovered in 1996. She was a poet living from 1605-1678 and she works are amazing. What's more, because her work has only been rediscovered in the past thirty years we have the amazing opportunity to be apart of the conversation. This is not a Shakespeare play where we get to explore for the millionth time, each of Pulter's poems are so fresh for the conversation that we get to help build this conversation. So, as I do this in class, I will be using this blog to write down all my thoughts and notes as I personally read through her works and do my best from the stance as a writer and also as a university student to unpack this beautiful moment in time.
