Most people call me 'sick bastard,' but I'll take 'sick genius' over that any day. Thank you! 😆

Psh, maybe it’s fine line between genius and bastardry, but you’ve definitely crossed it.

Grosserie upon yuckification - actually approaching my bodyhorror limit right now. I skipped "The Substance" only to be inflicted by this?

Seriously, tho, really good piece, WP3. I'm just thinking that I'm on the cusp here.

Thanks, A.P.! It's quite the honor to know I've written a story that's put you off body horror forever! 😜

Then I have failed. I'll have to write something even more disgusting than this. 🤔

You did warn us, but you knew what would happen when you said, "DO NOT READ! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!" Of course I read it. My brain got pretty squirmy, but it's a good (though freaky) story. Maybe she can get some revenge on those mean girls now...

What a bizarre story. brilliant and over the top in every way. Have you seen "Teeth" ??

Ha! Yeah, that's what it means here as well, haha. Glad you enjoyed this one. It kind of felt like I was just torturing the reader while writing it, but I knew someone out there would get a kick out of it! And yes! Teeth! Vagina dentata! Body horror is the best horror.

Reminds me of a few stories from Jeremy Robert Johnson’s “we live inside you”, biological bizarro short story collection.

Nice! I've enjoyed stories I've read of his. I love me some bizarro body horror.

Used to be friends with him in my FB days. He’s super cool guy. Wicked talent. The most amazing book I read from him, tho, is a non-bizarro novella called “in the river”. Favorite insane novels are “Skullcrack city” and “extinction journals”. The recent one “the loop” is also great.

Yeah, we were ‘friends’ back when I had certain social media accounts. We had a few conversations long ago, but I never knew him well enough to call him a true friend. Always nice interactions though. He even sent me a signed book once.
