It seems the cover for Infected: Prey is up for it! (Check out slot 5, as there it is.) Feel free to vote if you’d like. Anne Cain did an amazing job with it.

If I were casting Infected as a movie …

.. or TV show. (Really, I think this was made for the serial format, but what do I know?)

I was talking with a friend, and we decided to “cast” this imaginary project. So I thought just for fun I’d share my idea of what it would look like, if I were the god and could make this happen.

For whatever reason, I had the hardest time casting the leads. The secondary characters were damn easy, but Roan and Paris? In fact, I haven’t cast Paris at all – my friend suggested a name, so I’ve included him. She didn’t like my idea for Roan, feeling he isn’t big enough, but had no suggestion of her own. So that’s all noted.

Here’s my idea (and one of hers):

Hello!

If you’ve reade Infected: Prey and found my blog, thank you for visiting.

Infected started as serial fiction here, and I still continue to write it here. The world is just too much fun to play in, and besides, I’ve expanded it with all these weird characters who are effortless to write. But for those wondering where the fiction here relates to the book, I thought it was about damn time I put up a “primer”.

I number the stories as “books”, so Infected and Prey were book #1 & 2. The ones coming up in Infected: Bloodlines are #3 & 4 (Life After Death).

The stories available in the Infected fiction archive start with #5, Hysteria. You probably could read it with little confusion, although there is a spoiler of sorts for something that happens in Infected: Bloodlines. Just keep that in mind before you go forward.

The rest of the stories follow in this order:

Hysteria, Book 5

Freefall, Book 6

Bloodletting, Book 7

Shift, Book 8

Bloodbath, Book 9

The Land of the Blind, Book 10

Lesser Evils, Book 11

Meantime, Book 12 (the story still under way)

Yes, that’s quite a bit, but I told you I had fun in this world. In fact, I see it as a running TV series, only in prose form. Keep in mind that most of these are first drafts, so there’s bound to be typos and other detritus that needs some smoothing out, so sorry about that in advance.

I should also point out that the “comments” has been disabled, mainly because of spam, the internet’s great white shark. So if you wanted to ask me about anything, please click on the “Discussion Forums” at the top of the “Links” section (over there on the left), or just find me on Goodreads.

Thanks for reading!
