Right so I'm gonna take some time out today and patch up my Lamprey Spider story. I also took some time out yesterday and (somehow) shat out a 3000 word story because apparently my brain is like "fuck that novel you're working on, it's not important. Write random crap instead" so yeah I have another story now. I'll proof it and post it sometime over the weekend. Rough outline? Guy investigates a mine that "dug too deep" and discovers a list of Lovecraft cliches. It was inspired by a picture of a Black Nettle Jellyfish (fuck those meaty ribbons).

But I mention this because the framing device of the story is an IRS auditor writing a memo to his offices before he leaves. I've cut an enormous amount of information where the guy talks about the town (which I've called Hallowroots as a placeholder) and I think that, with minimal effort, it could be turned into an intro for the anthology should Elliot not reappear. This is not to say that I don't have faith (if you're reading this Elliot - I believe in you), it's just to let people know that should the shit hit the fan I can pull something out as a redundancy plan. Hopefully--and most likely--that's not the case though and I'll just be putting it forward as a second story.
