Good night.

Man, I look so sexy when I'm mortally tired.

I wonder: could Flesh actually sell millions? Flesh? I mean, that would be huge for me as a young writer, but it would also be a huge fucking thing in terms of the animal rights movement and just generally ethical conversation. That would be a funny little revolution.

I guess I could do that. But first I'll finish this tale of dead movie stars. Then I'll go back to Flesh, and... I can't be sure, but I have a feeling that it may really fucking truly have whatever the stuff is that it takes.

    1. (Hey! Who's asking?)

      There's this young man. His name is Oskar Blom. There's nothing fleshly about him. He's asexual and just generally so completely apathetic that he doesn't even see the ghosts haunting him.

      One night he's lying on an empty beach and he meets this girl who's pale as a ghost. He ends up meeting the girl for multiple times. The girl's forgiven everything.

      Then there's this man named Jeremy Witt. (I hate this name.) He's abnormally handsome and charismatic. His father died two decades ago, but used to be one of the richest people in the country. After his father's death JW virtually disappeared, but now after many years he's returned and he's giving insane speeches to thousands of people in dark rooms under the ground, which has quickly made him very famous.

      JW's about to give his Last Set of Speeches. They're going to be about flesh; animal flesh, meat, you get the point. For quite absurd reasons Oskar Blom ends up meeting Jeremy Witt. Oskar Blom becomes Jeremy Witt's PERSONAL ASSISTANT.

      Then there's this morbidly angry and very ugly man named Matias Sulka. (He's virtually Severus Snape. I was 16 and inspired by The Deathly Hallows.) Oskar Blom meets Matias Sulka briefly and accidentally and finds out that he hates, hates, HATES Jeremy Witt for unknown reasons.

      So anyway, Oskar Blom has become the Personal Assistant. Very soon he realizes that Jeremy Witt doesn't seem to give a shit about anything any more than he himself does. It becomes clearer and clearer that there's something out there that wants to kill and destroy JW, and JW couldn't care less.

      So, if JW is as numb and indifferent as OB, why does he even BOTHER?

      Who is Jeremy Witt? Who is Oskar Blom? Who is the pale girl? Who is Matias Sulka? They are all leaving things systematically out. This makes their communication a lot of fun.

      And after all, This Beautiful Creature Must Die.

      Was this brief?
