The Dying Fetus that started it all is back with a vengeance!
True Fiction is an ongoing collection of short fiction and novellas. Volume One consists of three novellas that make up one crazy story. It begins with "Dying Fetus," a simple tale of a high school boy who gets his girlfriend pregnant, but decides that he is going to sacrifice the baby to Satan. Reality ruptures and they find themselves in a surreal landscape called the Territory of the Seed: a land ruled by a fire-breathing fetus.
In "Cry-oh-Genics," a young man learns to come to terms with his tumultuous relationship with the opposite sex through the only medium he knows how-writing surreal stories. Then a mystic wizard tries to flee an evil dictator who forces his subjects to have sex everyday in "Surrogate Motherfucker."
If you know what "Lynchian" means then these tales are for you. Though they are based in reality, as all stories somewhat are, they are painted with a surreal brush of terror. Experience the world through the filter of what Avtar Simrit calls True Fiction.
