Our Forecast Reads Stygian (from The New Accelerator)
A civil servant who monitors sex offenders is losing his mind. He's suspended for actions he doesn't remember, prone to fits of anger, has horrifying hallucinations, and is visited by a stranger in his backyard warning him to not use the phone.
Is it a government conspiracy? Demon possession? Time travel and alternate universes? Is it all a dream? Is he dead and being tormented in the afterlife?
Good prose, but the story reaches a level early on and doesn't move from there, aside from a quick scene of violence that felt out of place. Without things ramping up I was just left to guess what the resolution would be. I didn't guess completely right, but given that the story felt four parts Jacob's Ladder and one part Angel Heart, it wasn't a surprise either.
Some loose threads are wrapped up at the end, but like Jacob's Ladder a lot is dropped. The audiobook's narration was a good artistic choice, whispery and lethargic, but didn't help with the pacing.
MMMMM, Scarlet and Dark, part of a two image series I did for @lockwayart for xmas. :D I made her a cute fleece blanket, this was one side feat. My gurl Scarlet and her oc, Dark Fuse.
REMEMBER Recuerdo que esta foto no me acababa de gustar porque no me gustaba como salía. Me veía como hinchada, con papada, porque mi forma es así, si me descuido me pillan en fotos que parece que tengo papada. Como si eso fuera algo malo. Y es que así somos, que nos metemos una caña brutal. Siempre nos vemos fallos que no son fallos, cuando en otras personas no nos lo parecen, pero en una misma sí. Siempre hay algo que no nos gusta, no nos convence, o lo queremos de otra forma. Entonces me desdoblo y me veo desde fuera, y me digo lo bonita que soy, y abrazo mucho a mi yo pasada como la de esta foto, y le digo cariñosamente lo boba que es a veces. #deliriumfusion #tribalbellydance #tribalfusion #darkandurbanfusion #darkfusion #bellydancersoninstagram #39300 #torrelaveganizate #torrelavegamiciudad👌🔥 #cantabria #danzacantabria https://www.instagram.com/p/CXeMTAIMjWl/?utm_medium=tumblr

My collection A Carcass of Genre is now available as an audiobook, narrated by Sean Walpole. Give it a listen, if you wish.
Description:
No narrative ever ends; each crawls inside its listeners to decay eternally. Those listeners become authors to write themselves out of existence, working themselves into our unspooling.
Presenting A Carcass of Genre, a twenty-stop tour of Jeremy Thompson's imagination, featuring all-new pieces and previously-released nightmares from publications such as Walk Hand In Hand Into Extinction, Into the Darkness, DarkFuse Magazine, Brewtality, and Year's Best Hardcore Horror Volume 2. Will you be the same after you listen to it? Will you be, at all?
