Hi, I'm Flail! I'm currently working on a long-form project with the working title Inhospitable as well as a shorter project I'm publishing this month called Beauveria bassiana. I also post about horror books I read and horror movies I watch.

I did it. I made the zine.
Empty Inside is a perzine exploring what it's like to be autistic in small, everyday moments.
Volume 1 focuses on interoceptive hyposensitivity, which is a sensory processing difference where a person has reduced or muted awareness of their body's internal signals.

I wrote this in 2019 because I wanted to do a @stephenking.bsky.social book, but gay. In the writing I was working through the deep sense of betrayal and anger at seeing loved ones give into their worst selves while supporting the first Trump admin. The sacrifice of humanity for wealth. 1/3 #Horror

I wanted the pack dynamics to be about families
I wanted toxic alpha bullshit to get called out and laughed at
I wanted invidivuals to find their own place and strengths within everything

While ago, pub'ed "Franchise Potential" in my newsletter b/c "shady publisher" reasons. I love the heck outta this weird, anticapitalist slasher.
Then, I adapted it as a short script—which is now an Official Selection for the Sinister Horror Film Festival in Mexico City (and online) in December.

#97, THE HUNGER WE PASS DOWN - Jen Sookfong Lee 🩸📚💙
Really strong character-driven horror story with real historical horrors, intergenerational trauma, and also some real weird doppelganger action. Loved the audiobook narrator but the split timeline would have been easier to follow in text I think
