    			  Was talking to a friend about Nin's diaries, which I read in their entirety when I was in my 20's, and influenced me profoundly.  I started keeping a journal when I was 17 and still do, but since Nin's dairies had been so heavily edited, I kept all the sex an drugs out of mine too (most of the rock'n'roll as well, because it had so much sex and drugs in it).  Then, when the unexpurgated diaries came out, we were all floored, so I'm reading an overview of the truth.  I plan on re-reading the unedited diaries beginning Jan. 2010 (after I finish UNDER THE DOME).

  		No, but maybe in the sequel, but John Skipp, Brian Keene, Michael Marshall Smith, Lois Gresh and Francesca Lia Block's stories are all wonderful.

    			  This is the best anthology I have ever edited (I think I've done a dozen now).  You have got to get this for the variety of the stories.  It's amazing how fluid the zombie mythos is.

    			  I was given this as a antidote to the 110 zombie romance stories I plowed through for HUNGRY FOR YOUR LOVE.  It blew me away.  Wish I'd written it.<br/><br/>All the women in Manhattan turn into ravenous zombies after a tanker leaks cherry-scented ether.  It's an amazing zombie romp through all the wrong places.  I loved it.
