Dead Worlds Anthology Series A project of Living Dead Press (see other related projects). Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions. We provide the following information as an archive. About What we want: Original stories about zombies that have not been printed anywhere before. They can be fast or slow, though we are partial to slow, Romero-type zombies. Keep the plot true to a world where the dead walk, but that's it. No werewolves or vampires, its the world we live in but the dead walk, otherwise everything is the same. Can be set in past or present, but once again we are partial to our present time line. Please try not to be cute or try new concepts, just standard, good, old fashion zombie stories with lots of blood, guns and gore.
