Great work. I love stories that feel like they don't have to explain everything. It really had a cool Philip K. Dick (no pun intended) feel to it.

Oh hell yeah, I love me some Dick!

This thing rips. Gross, funny, and weirdly precise. The black goo + energy drink lore is perfect. It never blinks.

In a story jammed with gross, the restraint with this line struck perfectly: “If I recall correctly, they never found all her body parts.” It’s horror without showing the monster; really well done.

My wife knows a Robert Robertson and it's always struck me funny.

I probably shouldn’t have, but I found this so hot. Might keep it for later

Rejoicingly absurd, absurdly rejoicing discourse on D(d)ick

Nice one. It was a fun ride.

So that particular drink is a recurring motif in your works. Okay. (I’m currently finishing your SexTape book.)

Yeah, it's one of the things that connects my universe. Mother Fucking Black Skull of Death was actually my second novella way back in the day.

Wow! Excuse the onslaught of adjectives, but that was incredibly lurid, vivid, grotesque and bizarre! Very impressive. But now I need to take a shower. 😬

I was completely grossed out by this. The hairs on the soap, I mean. The rest was great.

Yeah, that's just nasty! Thanks for reading!
