Issue no. One

Excerpt from "Daytripping":

My place has black tinted windows and I see the crimes through them. The glass is so dark it acts like mirrors if you focus just right. I can see the whole room behind me in its reflection. The faces can't see me looking at them, which is a good thing because I don't have enough energy to give them all sympathy.

Issue no. Two

Excerpt from "Melanie":

When she walked by, it was clear that she wore too much perfume. If she sat next to you your lungs would fill with the smell of artificial flowers, glucose, and chemical sweetness. The perfume coated the back of your lung, and even after she left it would remain there for you to taste for the rest of your evening.

books / The Savannah Stores Series One: The Frampton Menace

One eventful day, Savannah Hunter gets an unexpected 'I need a favour' phone call from Jason Manning, an old friend who managed to screw up his life fast enough to set a few world records. Naively taking pity on him, Savannah lets him into her home with half-open arms.

Suddenly, her apartment has become a stage show full of characters so colourful they might as well dress as a packet of Skittles for Halloween. As the horrors of the male geek world fall down upon her like Overeater's Anonymous at a Las Vegas breakfast buffet, the parade of guys begin to monopolize the apartment through various events like a 48-hour long Survivor game on the sofa, a trip to the VD clinic, the construction of a fully-operational battlebot, and many other surreal events that not only border on insanity, but completely conquer it.

zines / Sh*t Sh*t Sh*t

Sh*t Sh*t Sh*t or 'The "We Fucked Up" Zine' is a new fiction zine featuring the stories "Planet of the Cannibals," written and drawn by Natty Pilcher and "Welcome to Death," written and drawn by Elli Pearson. With existential questions and an absurdist sense of humour, Sh*t Sh*t Sh*t makes for a fun read!

Excerpt from "Planet of the Cannibals":

How it works: When a Doornuppian happens across another Doornuppian that is feeling sad -sad for any reason, maybe she is hearing a sad song, maybe her mother just died, it doesn't matter- they lift their vacuum cleaner arms and with a sound like shlooop, the Doornuppian pulls the sadness into their oversize tummies.

Excerpt from "Welcome to Death":

She wondered what death would be life. A release? An explosion? A sudden disappearance? Would there be a reckoning in which she met God? The Devil? Would she be forced to pay for all of her sins? Would she immediately reincarnate into another person or animal? Would there be a lag in time between being dead and being reincarnated? Or would it just be blackness? Non-existence? A few moments later she realized that she was wrong about everything.
