Cultivating the fear until it's the only thing left . . . That was brilliantly uncomfortable.

Thank you for commenting Richard. That was the first pure horror story I’ve written in years. And I like it. Usually, it’s horror of the absurd, or psychological. It was nice just to write HORROR. And I’ll definitely take “brilliantly uncomfortable.” 🙏

Oh gosh, the horror. The way this is written makes the doom feel completely mundane. And the tentacles. Mostly the tentacles. Wake up, howl, ripen, wait. Excellent x

It's all about the tentacles MoTy. You know that.

I was just checking out your main page. I love your aesthetic. All the b+w photographs. And your poetry is awesome. I read one of your earlier poems, and I think you’ve significantly evolved.

Also. New chapters of my horror novel are out today. So you can have a good laugh, if nothing else. Laughter therapy. 😂

This story seeps into the bones. The slow unraveling of dread, the eerie stillness broken by otherworldly horrors is a chilling journey through fear and helplessness. Thank you for sharing such unsettling tale.
