He’s sick to death of reading about people
who spend all their time reading about werewolves and zombies. He tries
to spend at least an hour every day in the bookstore café, having a quiet cup
of coffee and writing about whatever else comes into his mind, but—no matter
how hard he tries—his fans come in to stand behind him and prod him to wake the
sleeping dead, outfit the living with glowing eyes and fangs.
“There must be something more,” he
thinks, knowing full well that there isn’t. He turns to confront them,
but it’s clear that resistance is futile.
They unzip his skull and feast on his brain.
