Wishing I Had Written

something half as clever as this. After working on a couple of flash pieces and a chapter of my novel this morning, I decided to take a break and start reading a new book having just finished "Storm Prey" ( one of the better John Sandford novels in recent memory) yesterday.

Thanks to a trip to the library yesterday, I have a copy of the new book "The Best Of Joe R. Lansdale." This collection features a number of stories from this Texas author as well as his novella, "Bubba Ho-Tep.




The collection opens with a very funny and seriously twisted story about Godzilla being in a twelve step program. It isn't easy to fight the drives within when one wants to scorch stuff and feel humans squish between the toes.

Godzilla on a 12-step? That's not a common phrase.

Godzilla is on a rehab deal---like AA.
