Zombies and Gas Stations!

I'm gonna try to keep these mini-blogs relevant and not obnoxious and spammy. Anyhoo, It's June 1st and today I want to share 100 (well, 97) words from one of my current projects (working title: The Gas Station At The Edge Of Eternity). It's going to be a very short story, maybe 3000 words in total. I'm expecting to release it on Friday or Saturday this week. Excerpt: “What the hell is that, d’ya suppose?” Johnny asked, pointing at the thing outside. It smashed into the door again. Stella hopped up on the counter and slid across, reaching beneath the cash register and turning on the outside light. Suddenly illuminated, the thing outside made a terrible squelching, groaning noise and rammed into the door again. A single, tiny crack spread from the point where it hit the glass. At one point, it looked like it had been human, but that time was long ago. Its skin was a dark purple mottled with green and pink.
