forthcumming Oxford novel - from Randall Revisited - to Cuntland Chronicles

best cover concept to date... :)

gah, I always liked the concept of re-visiting the (United States-era) dream-planet of Randall.  And finally I decided to get on with it...

But was I really happy with the proposed title of Randall Revisited?

Did I really want what might be my last Hertzan Chimera novel to come across like some sort of soft scifi loosely based on an Evelyn Waugh homo-romp aka The Sacred & Profane Memories of Charlie T Driver?

Was I happy that Hertzan Chimera's lasting legacy would be mispronounced around the book-review world by some camply lisping podcaster to Wandall Wevisited... I mean, we've all seen Monty Python's Life of Brian, right? Woger?

A Hertzan Chimera novel about cars and fucking and intergalactic mind-fracture needs a meatier title, right? Hence and therefore. From this day forward. Til death do us part. The next i.e. forthcumming, Zensual fiction Hertzan Chimera novel is to be called CUNT LAND chronicles.

Let the reading world take heed... and beware.
  

Hertzan Chimera - 2016 novel - Randall Revisited

it's gonna be about Organic Sex Machines i.e. you and I, transplanted to that special place where horror and art are THE SAME FUCKING THING.

Q: wasn't Hertzan Chimera supposed to be co-writing a novel with Rachael Kozak called Venomist this year?

A: I had a lot of contact last year with the very talented Mz Kozak about this proposed co-work (ideas flowed back and forth on certain technical issues or narrative concepts) all the time explaining that I had time in 2016 and we could explore Venomist some more then. Well, I received the first few pages from Mz Kozak and I have to say, "She's gotta do this on her own," it has her voice, not mine, and it's a very special, unique and exciting voice that all who're interested in chemical-realms and spiritual-realms and ancient-history-realms need to experience for themselves.

Randall? I wrote a book called United States back in the day and it featured a brief visitation to a psycho-horror concrete-chase car-sex world called Randall ... that's what it's going to be about, Revisited. A seering road movie with a distinct whiff of nitroglycerine about it. Or just a forlorn building who lust after some decent garaging.

"There's this lovely little car I've had my eye on for a few weeks now, name of Wendy." ref: The Getaway Girl, one of the original HC-story inspirations for this novel.

2016 - Hertzan Chimera & Hecate Belphegor collaborate - VENOMIST novel

(c) 2014 Hecate Belphegor

words from the other side:
Have you ever had a dream where you walked into the Church and it thrust you back in time so that even your fancy phone-camera no longer worked? And the tiled floor was multi-dimensional, literally fractal. And the enormous church door had two layers of existence, an inner and an outer? Have you ever then been near-drowned and interrogated by an ancient swordsman who reminded you of Robin of Loxley?

Well, yes, Hertzan Chimera is dead, long may his soul rest in Lye. Eaten by fly. But what's this? A stirring in the chemical soup? An acid-tastic soft-erection? Is there a chance that he's? Oh, my God, No!!!!!

Look, fuck it, I'm just gonna come out and say this, "In 2016 I've promised to write a collaborative novel with famous anti-everything heroine Hecate Belphegor, it's prospectively called VENOMIST and yes it might very well be a new Hertzan Chimera novel."

Mwua hahah!
