Ants are a form of thing, known for travelling in cliques. They are small in size, unknown in color, and bashful in temperament. Every ant has two appendages they use to hurt other beings, and four appendages for other activities. Scientists have discovered many types of ants; gay, Protestant, electric, and chill. Their wealth is considered low.
hi mike! I love your work so dearly. OI'm currently writing my undergraduate thesis on the way time is treated in lake mungo and your version of hill house, and I'm having a grand ol' time! for some reason, I had a memory of you saying that Lake Mungo and Don't Look Now both served as inspiration for the Bent-Neck Lady, but I can't find that aaaaaanywhere. any thoughts on why I thought that?
It's certainly true, and I've said it in interviews and Q&A's over the years - not sure where you can find it in print, but both Lake Mungo and Don't Look Now are absolutely inspirations for the Bent-Neck Lady. Both deal beautifully with the idea of a protagonist being haunted by a premonition, and there are other great examples as well, including an episode of the original Twilight Zone series called "Spur of the Moment", which puts an interesting twist on the concept.
i was the first girl to get shrunk so small that they blew a bubble around me and i wasnt even big enough to break the tension in the soap and i floated away into the sky until it popped 100 meters up and i fell for what felt like years due to my low terminal velocity and when i hit the ground i wasnt even hurt and i joined an ant colony. since then ofcourse there have been many others.

A Palestinian father playfully balances his son on his right hand at the beach in Gaza City early one evening.
The coast of Gaza has grown increasingly popular over the years. It had always been a sight for weary eyes but with Israel’s siege denying Gazans the freedom to move, its seemingly endless seascape offers, for many, a very tangible escape, even if only temporal. It has also become a very popular family destination. Entire meals are prepared, served, and eaten here, and it is not uncommon to stay the night, father, son, and all.
