About Katydid
Katydid is a story about a day in the life of a 10-year-old girl trying to survive on her own in a post-apocalyptic world. Staying alive and dealing with the daily perils in After is not easy. Trying to not become prey for the many predators that rise out of the ashes is often the least of your worries. It would not be easy for anyone, much less a lone, young girl. After losing everything she had, and everyone she knew, from Before, Katy is bound and determined to keep the one thing she has left – her life. Such as it is. And will be.
This medium-length novelette is an extended adaptation of the author’s short film screenplay of the same name, which is included, along with two poems.
This story falls somewhere between Science Fiction and Literature. (not my words, and I thank the person who said them – I never expected to get that kind of a response, feedback, review, and compliment)
(contains adult themes)
Katydid is available as an e-book and paperback.
The Amazon Kindle e-book version is sightly different from the Smashwords version, but only in some formatting.
