IT WAS A DARK AND STORMY NIGHT That's Funny Right?

This is a story about two people who are trying to write a funny novel about zombies. And about the other people in their lives. They intertwine a little-some more than others. If it were a movie, it would be called a romantic comedy. (A rom-com?) But, it's a book, so it can be described as a crumbling effort to be amusing.
