A New Apocalyptic Survival Thriller Series by January Bain

 

Good Morning from me and Baby Ling Ling! 

A wise woman told me a photo of a cat is always appreciated, so I thought, why not show off my beautiful fluffy baby girl!

I hope this message finds you well this fine June morning! Such a wonderful time of year with everything summer on the horizon. 

I'm here today to talk about a new series I've just begun writing: World Gone Dark. I mention it because I have 9 books planned, something a bit out of my comfort zone. I think the stretch as a writer is good for me. I'll let you know next month if I manage to keep my sanity or not?!

This new series will follow the Mackenzie clan as they struggle to survive in the hollers of Kentucky. I always wanted to write a series set in the South and have thoroughly enjoyed the research, including family good recipes passed down for generations.

One of the interesting things I've discovered is what people keep in their bug-out bags when they are expecting a disaster to strike. This is an incomplete list but it gets one thinking. Perhaps you would like to add something to a comment about what you couldn't live without? I would find that very interesting! Thank you and have a grand month.

General bug-out bag list:

First Aid Supplies

Cash

NOAA battery-powered radio

Rain jacket

Headlamp

Flashlight

Multi-tool like a Leatherman

Compass and paper maps

Packets of food and nuts

Energy bars

Bottle of water

LifeStraw

Medicines

Extra clothes and especially socks

Plastic tarp if you have room

Toilet paper

So, what couldn't you do without?

Happy Day to you!

Hugs, January /Storyteller
