Differently Animated

Comedy Horror - Dark Comedy - Satirical Urban FantasyWhat if becoming a zombie wasn't your biggest problem... breaking HOA rules was?Owen Sullivan has a simple goal: keep his lawn immaculate, win Whispering Pines' prestigious Golden Trowel competition, and maintain perfect suburban appearances. There's just one complication. He's dead. Every morning is a carefully choreographed routine of industrial glue, theatrical makeup, compression garments, and creative excuses to hide the fact that his body is literally falling apart.
Between keeping his jaw attached, concealing missing fingers, and feeding the increasingly undead mailman hidden in his basement, Owen is determined to remain the model homeowner. Unfortunately, Brenda Vance-the iron-fisted president of the Homeowners Association-is always watching. As neighborhood inspections intensify, missing residents raise suspicions, and the coveted gardening competition approaches, Owen must prove that even a reanimated corpse can uphold community standards...
provided no body parts fall onto the prize-winning flower beds. Differently Animated is a delightfully absurd blend of comedy horror, suburban satire, zombie fiction, dark humor, quirky fantasy, and laugh-out-loud neighborhood politics. Perfect for readers who love witty supernatural stories, eccentric characters, HOA nightmares, and hilariously unconventional undead adventures.
