Toby Chalmers Commits “Career” Suicide
by Jeremy Thompson
ONE HORROR WRITER. ONE VERY BAD CAREER MOVE. AN ENTIRE UNIVERSE OF BEAUTIFULLY TWISTED NIGHTMARES.
What happens when a struggling horror author gets dragged into a world of increasingly depraved fiction, bizarre collaborations, and the kind of trouble no amount of creative writing can fix?
Meet Toby Chalmers, a horror hack whose attempt to reinvent his career takes a turn into the grotesque, the absurd, and the gloriously unhinged.
It starts with an animal-vegetable hybrid home invader armed with high-tech coercion. Before long, Toby finds himself entangled with murderous publishing professionals, abductive extraterrestrials, and a parade of freakish characters straight out of a literary fever dream. As his creative ambitions veer from horror into the outrageous territory of bizarro fiction, the line between professional disaster and personal catastrophe grows dangerously thin.
Will Toby survive the bizarre forces invading his life? Will he ever write a bestseller? And why has cancel culture decided he’s its next target?
