How would it be possible to avoid nuclear meltdowns in a post-apocalyptic scenario?

So, in any scenario where humans quickly disappear, nuclear meltdowns will be a threat in a relatively short period of time. In what way could this be avoided?

One of my favorite excerpts from my zombie outbreak story

Hey, guys! I’m publishing a zombie outbreak novel this November. I posted about it earlier here.

It’s told from multiple perspectives to give the reader a taste of how the outbreak affects multiple parties, and I wanted to share one of my favorite excerpts! It’s currently on preorder sale for 99c if anyone’s interested!

“Lauren, sweetie?”

Sharon had been observing the fourth grader for some time. She had asked to lie down twenty minutes ago, so Sharon had pulled out the cot her own students used when they felt sick or tired and let the girl rest. However, now Lauren was up, facing the wall, her fingernails having gone at her arm incessantly for the last seven minutes. One of the first graders had told the teacher about it, said Lauren was scaring her after mentioning it felt like something was crawling around under her skin. Lauren hadn’t responded to Sharon yet, though she continued to scratch. It wasn’t until the teacher stepped a bit closer, a few of the first graders flocking behind her like ducklings following their mother, and peeked over the girl’s shoulder that she saw the raw, bloody mess she had made of her forearm.

Sharon sucked in a sharp breath, her palm shooting to her mouth to stifle the gasp she didn’t want Lauren to hear.

The scratching stopped. Lauren’s arms dropped to her sides, and her once upright neck, after twitching several times, snapped sideways. A few of the first graders scurried with a start to the other corner of the room, them and the rest looking at their teacher for answers with terrified confusion.

Worrying her bottom lip between her teeth, Sharon dared to take another step toward the girl as her desire to uphold her responsibility as a caregiver barely overpowered the urge to cower like the very children she taught and swore to protect.

“Lauren,” she said, “is everything okay?”

Lauren responded with a low, crackling moan.

I wrote a zombie outbreak book & it’s on preorder for 99c!

Hey, everyone! My zombie outbreak book releases on 11/15, but it’s on preorder sale for only 99c right now if anyone needs a new read!

The book definitely doesn’t shy away from the bleakness or devastation of a zombie outbreak, so be prepared for lots of zombie action and thrills.

Aftermath - Post-Apocalyptic LARP in Socal

Hello!

I own and run a small post-apocalyptic boffer LARP in Southern California.

We play monthly in Fallbrook and would love to see some new players come out and join us!

You can check out our website here

A little bit about the world of Aftermath.

Aftermath is a post-apocalyptic survival LARP roughly 150 years after the fall. Our goal is to immerse every participant in a post-apocalyptic setting where working with your fellow survivors is key. Through collaborative storytelling and gameplay, we aim to provide an unforgettable experience that challenges, inspires, and fosters camaraderie in a world trying to rebuild itself.

The World After the Fall

Roughly 150 years after a cataclysmic solar storm turned the earth's surface into a radiated wasteland the mutated descendants of humans have carved out a decent existence. The path to that wasteland version of decency, however, was marred with hardship and bloodshed as the world around them adapted.  To escape the storm and radiation, the majority of humanity moved underground.  Despite this attempt at survival, the mutation process had already begun, and humanity found itself changing to fit its new environment. As the years passed, some groups decided to venture back to the surface while others stayed in the deep Undertowns and settled into the new way of life. Those who ventured up and out of the dark were met with the hardened Mutants who had become acclimated to the surface while the others fled below.
