Kirk Allmond Returning to Infect Scranton

YORK, Pa. - Aug. 24, 2013 - PRLog -- Kirk Allmond, best selling author of the 'What Zombies Fear' series of books, is headed to the Infect Scranton zombie convention with one goal; convince you to prepare for zombies, starting now!

Kirk Allmond has been talking about zombie preparedness for years.  Back in 2006 he founded The Zombie Preparedness Initiative, a global project with over 25,000 members in more than 30 countries.  Their goal is to prepare the world for the inevitable zombie apocalypse.  Their motto is "If you're ready for zombies, you're ready for anything."

Infect Scranton is an annual convention held in Scranton, PA.  Heralded as "Comic Con for Zombie Fanatics," Infect Scranton features dozens of zombie-culture celebrities, from cast members of AMC's smash hit The Walking Dead to stars of classic zombie movies like Dawn of the Dead, to some of the most famous authors of genre-related fiction. The convention runs from Sept. 20 - 22, and in addition to the celebrity guests, also features a zombie pub crawl and zombie 5k race.

Allmond and The Zombie Preparedness may speak in terms of zombies, but the real message is one of personal respomsibility and preparedness.  In 2011, there were fourteen natural disasters that cost US $1b or more.  In 2012, there were eleven events in that category, and 2013 is shaping up to be the most expensive year in history for natural disasters.
