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.)

One can access "The Greater Goo" at

SNEAK PEEK DARK FICTION: THE GREATER GOO, PART 1

 

As Raffaele Pezzella gears up for a new volume of Dark Fiction, while revitalizing past ones, he's offering a sneak peek at my David Lynch/Twin Peaks story, "The Greater Goo" through Patreon.

"The Greater Goo" centers on Lynch's visionary works (Twin Peaks, Blue Velvet, Mulholland DriveThe Elephant Man ... Eraserhead), with aspects of such seeping into our reality. The phenomena springs from a factory-spawned creature that "magnetizes" what surrounds it, including people. 

One can read the initial segment at the below links. (BTW: The second half of "The Greater Goo" will be released soon. Stay tuned.)
