SNEAK PEAK DARK FICTION, THE GREATER GOO, PART 2

Raffaele Pezzella just dropped the second half of my Dark Fiction, David Lynch-inspired story, "The Greater Goo" for Eighth Tower Magazine through Patreon. (See February 1 post regarding Part 1.)

"The Greater Goo" references storylines and concepts found in Twin Peaks, Blue Velvet, Mulholland Drive, Eraserhead and The Elephant Man. It features a strange entity (a "goo," if one will) inspired by both the Eraserhead baby and "the Arm" from Twin Peaks: The Return. The creature absorbs (rather like the Blob), collecting and cultivating flesh, but also the thoughts that swarm around it. (For the record, there is, in fact, a smidgeon of Todd Solondz's Welcome to the Dollhouse in the tale, due to the goo's friend, a downtrodden lass.)
