high weirdness from the land of the morning calm

When vicious day turns to blackest night, and bloodthirsty moon rises above endless, sable ocean, -pop- out of an egg emanates a hideous, bumbling, useless to all the world duckling.

Zagth! Hark at the moon! Just missing the Mark fer the 2006 holiday rush comes the stollen of fiction by marginalized author GKG, "TITS". This novel, which picks up where "Dang" left off, with Doctor Science (Good Morning Hibbert, op. ed.) mounting Japongus Peak, has several rocks being "offed" in the process. Updated for the new century, digitized and REFORMATTED for YOUR gratitude, this version is 100% the same! "Some pages made the cut!" - Howard "When I came back from Korea in Oh Twelve, I found it in the freezer. Now it's your problem," admonishes the author. "Non gustibus disputandum est," the-best-I-can-do's a dozing Dan. "Tomorrow's another day," reckons ol' Van Wink. Handing the conversion off to inferiors were Tuzduz and Dingo Solnar, recent hires of S'e'e'o' 'ou'e, who have little or nothing to say, as one can tell from their bayou liars' eyes. GKG was found mounting Japongus Hump, and groped, for comment. His lips slowly parted and after the steam had cleared GKG said through clenched teeth and a menacing grimace that his book would be out by X-mas times. Here's Hoping!

Somewhere a portal has opened (or a mountain crevasse) and beckons you to fall in! Where other novels fail, "Goofy Ideas and Lies about Twin Peaks" captures the spontaneity and weirdness of the original series in a sequence of vignettes inspired by the unique mania of 20 different rural Washington state residents (including Frankenstein).

When the spacebar on his computer stopped functioning, Tuán Tǐ remembered an idea he'd had years before. What would it be called if the total allowed length of a flash fiction assignment was just the length of the prompt? Tuán Tǐ began hammering away on his nonfuctioning keyboard for twenty minutes a day, and it was in this moment that slash fiction arose out of some abyssal hole to liquidate the minds of the author, and by proxy, you.
