horny housewife number one reached for her terrorist manual. when her forefinger made contact with its lamiated pages she felt a jolt inside of her twat. "hmmm this will be a great day to make transcendent objects into nothingness" she said and proceded to arouse her boston terrier, through swift yet gentle strokes. suddenly, a lard crack was heard as the floorboards opened and her grandmother's engorged prostate writhed out from the depths of hell and started vibrating in mid-air. "what is this nameless eldtrich blashpemy?" said the horny housewife before she shat out the heir to the prussian throne. D. N.

This story has left more questions than answers. It is an excellent parody of modern female writing, and critiques the core dogma of romance stories aimed at women.

"Just get the fucking wire," he said and glared at me. I got out of the truck, looked at the prairie, and turned to get my food and gloves. But all I got was a face full of dirt and the muffled thump of Alabama coming from the radio as it tore down the dirt road, no doubt headed for a fine drinking establishment.
Now, how the hell was I gonna take this barbed wire down without gloves? No food, either. It was already 10, and I wanted to get back to the house before the wolves came out.
Fuck me, he told me SIX strings, not five. I spent 4 weeks stringing wire on the fenceposts, and he told me SIX strings. So I put up six. Now one has to come down. What the hell is he going to do with that? And it's up already.....
I bit my lip and looked to the east, the fence posts repeating themselves endlessly down the border of his land. I looked west, and saw the same thing, except for a plume of dust as the truck sped away to cool drinks and hot tunes.
I went to the fence, squatted down and loooked at what a fine job I had done of securing the barbed wire to the post. Now it had to be undone. But which row?
Something hard under my boot, I kicked it away but heard a funny metallic sound and watched something shiny bounce away from me.

That night, when my son was tucked away in bed immersed in his hyper-speed slideshow, my wife and I shared his passion, dimming the lamp, I stared at my hands, "Why, why have you done this to me?" I looked to my wife, who was snored like an fairy, moments later I'd dropped off, but no later had I re-awoken, gasping, I glanced at my wife, then at my belly, prodding it a few times, it was sore, everything was, especially my balls.

A friend of mine, the ugly and skinny daughter of a Jesuit, died in an earthquake. Her butler was inconsolable; he shouted at me and blamed me for not being able to save her. Kneeling at the debris, I did the first thing it occurred to me; I lied and told him I was part of a very powerful secret society. He knew, then, that I had powers beyond the human scope. He calmed down and told me that, in order to bring her back, I needed to find a strange tome in Mussolini’s library. I was hopeless because I knew that Mussolini was nearly illiterate.

>Do you want me to put it somewhere...pacific?"

Don't think the ellipses are necessary.

>I got out of the truck, looked at the prairie, and turned to get my food and gloves.

Listing a succession of motions like this has always bothered me. Maybe you could try:

"I got out of the truck and looked at the prairie. When I turned to get my food and gloves, all I got was a face full of dirt and the muffled thump of Alabama coming from the radio as it tore down the dirt road."

>Now, how the hell was I gonna

Your writing, but "gonna" and such are more acceptable in the speech than the narration. If yer gonna go this way, ya shud try ta commit ta it more.

>before the wolves came out.

No. You're ending with a preposition.

>Fuck me,

Fuck me! He told me ...

>I spent 4 weeks stringing wire on the fenceposts, and he told me SIX strings.

I had spent ...

>Now one has to come down. What the hell is he going to do with that? And it's up already.....

You use too many words to express really simple ideas. It drags the story down and irritates your readers. Focus on trimming down thoughts, even if they're your characters thoughts and he's naturally long-winded.

>I bit my lip and looked to the east, the fence posts repeating themselves endlessly down the border of his land.

Forgot what this is called, but "I bit ... the east" has to related to the subject of the second part of the sentence. What does biting your lip and the east have to do with the fence posts? There's no logical connection. It's sloppy English.

You list successive motions a lot. "I did X, Y, and Z." Try not to do that much.

"I bit my lip, looking down the long line of fenceposts standing guard along a border no one cares about, and found myself considering a new line of work."
I still don't know what biting my lip has to do with the line of fence posts, other than it is the reaction the posts cause in the narrator.

Except that Chuck actually has some sort of coherence, it is in some way linear and there are central themes. Stan's is a pastiche of surreal imagery, word play and philosophical mood, well written, yet intentionally devoid of coherence and lacking in metanarrative. This is much more typical of post-modernism than Palahniuk.

With charm of earliest birds; pleasant the sun
When first on this delightful land he spreads
His orient beams, on herb, tree, fruit, and flower,
Glistering with dew; fragrant the fertile earth
After soft showers; and sweet the coming on
Of grateful evening mild, then silent night
With this her solemn bird and this fair moon,
And these the gems of heav'n, her starry train:
But neither breath of morn when she ascends
With charm of earliest birds, nor rising sun
On this delightful land, nor herb, fruit, flower,
Glistring with dew, nor fragrance after showers,
Nor grateful evening mild, nor silent night
With this her solemn bird, nor walk by moon,
Or glittering starlight without thee is sweet.

I wake up masturbating. It is the third time this week.I do remember dreaming prior to this, but to my continued disbelief, it wasn't sexual. I was dreaming that I was at the DMV line and the large African woman was telling me that my driving test had to be postponed due to inclement weather. She kept repeating the words 'inclement weather' and tilting her head the way black women do, as if to say "You better recognize". I always got confused as to what exactly I was supposed to recognize, I generally assumed it was their sass, though most of the time this seemed obvious and should have went without saying. The sass I did recognize and for a moment I would feel at easy and very worldly-like, but then doubt would creep in and I would start to wonder whether there was something implicit in their sass, something indirect yet of the utmost importance; this hidden substratum I could not perceive, let alone recognize, and this terrified me. I never understood black people. They were kinds of things dreams were made of... in this case quite literally. I look down at my fully erect shaft.

I finally did my calculations right today. After weeks of stalking Julia, a fellow student of the same year who is also a nerdy slightly unkempt recluse like me, in the hallways of our highschool. I finally caught her alone in the hallway, during lunch break. She always has such a predictable routine, such a geek. I came from behind, silent as death. I grabbed her by the elbow and reeled her in the indentation where door class door meets wall. Nobody was in the door, nobody in the hall. Alone. She having the reflexes of a sedated cat let out a yelp, but I silenced her by putting my hand over her mouth. I began molesting her, squeezing her into the corner, fondling her breasts. She began to consent to this sensuality, and so I let go of her mouth and dry humped her as I massaged her small breasts as well as rubbing her cookie, ass, and thighs.

I had brewed beer with my father once growing up and learned that if light infiltrated the glass quality would be compromised. I really didn’t mind the taste though.

There's a train that rolls by every once and a while. I hear its horn through the window of my dorm. Although I can't look out to watch it trundle past, I always know how long its progress lasts. The rhythm of its thumps and chugs has established itself as a metronome of progress, the dull thunk of a lumbering cargo box echoing across the baseball diamond followed by a diminished whish bridging the gap between its wheels. Sometimes I like to see myself packing up some clothes, knowing exactly when that train will arrive, and closing the door to my dorm for the final time as I roll my suitcase into the hall. Down by the station, a miniature brick-and-mortar stand of old, I'll watch the majestic beast arrive, as oblivious to my presence as a king to his procession's. I'll push down the handle of my case until it click into its provided indentation and look for one of those cargo carts to open up as the animal slows from an outright sprint to a slow strut. In a moment, it will manifest: an open, black void, slightly ajar out of laziness or chance grinding. A welcome sight to the stow-away in practice, a straight shot to a place without the stranglehold of debt or isolation resting on one's shoulders. One hop inside opens up a whole new life.

In the event that I tell you something that isn't true, punch me in the face. Punch me right in the fucking face. Ball a tight, wobbly fist, then punch me in my goddamn face. I hate my face.

Happy to tell you, though, that I've not yet been punched in the face by anyone bar that little bitch creature what I encountered, all angry like, in old primary school. Fuck, that was a mess. What an asshole that guy was. One of these days, someone is going to beat the shit out of you, someone told me (heh). They fucking tried and they might keep fucking trying, yeah, I remember that - in primary school - had the damn notion that I might goddamn become some kind of prophet-speaker bastard, and that I'd need to protect myself or something - protect my right to speak candidly, and that - and that I'd need to fight if that was the case, and I took up classes with this martial arts company and I learned to really kick some fucking ass. I mean, like, so many kinds of ass: short-asses, tall fuckers, motherfuckers, bitches, muscly bastards, cunts with arms like trees (like, the teacher said, no cunt's got an arm like a tree, but, if he did, this is how you'd take him). I'd fuck 'em all. I was like that. I was good at fucking fighting.

These high modern towers oppress me—suffocate me. The throng is alive all around; I'm trapped. A stout woman trundles along ahead of me.

All the boys were sitting on one side of Mark's lawn, drinking and smoking. It was the end of November and, like the rest of the month, the weather was volatile and confused: cloudless and warm when I woke up then warm still but pissing rain as we watched the sun go down two hours later. His mum, a haggard woman with hair like a unravelled scourer, was mowing the other side, spending more time staring at the grass than cutting it. I had forgotten where his dad was. He was unemployed, so probably inside. Either way the weed smoke through the aluminium door was just another smell, and the acid tab beneath my tongue just another day.

There are too many, breathing heavily around me, slumped on chairs in front of gate B36, eating chips and waiting for boarding.
The seats are old, in some places the orange foam is torn off, leaving the plastic skeleton exposed. I'm sitting in one of better ones, yawning. In front of me there is a glass stand, where a thin woman sells
cigarettes, potato chips and bottled water. She sits motionless, head sticking out from a Karelia sign, staring at the directory. The plane to St. Petersburg is running late,an hour delay, which meant to expect at least 3 hours of staring at tiles and these people sweating as they carry their rolling suitcases
in hand to preserve the wheels. I open my mouth widely, yawning again. A pretty lady looks at my open hole as she makes her way to the empty seat in front of me, followed by her friend. They both sit down.
She has a slender figure, with fake tits and nipples which stick out in her tight T shirt, making a bridge in the fabric. Her friend is a plump man dressed in white. White pants and a white collared shirt, buttoned tightly. It's too small for him.
His fat rolls make folds on his sides, and the red converses he wears make him look like a giant white slug with bleeding feet. Giant white worm with shiny new blood soaked shoes, Ray Bans and an
expensive watch. He holds 2 plane tickets on his left hand.

You're walking home from McDonalds. Walking isn't quite the right term, more of a stumble. You're drunk, you see, and quite full of burgers. You only eat the burgers, someone told you that the fries and the drink contain most of the calories in a McDonalds meal. So you ate eight big burgers, oozing with cheese and grease and ketchup. On your way home you have to pass a children's playground.

It's evening, about 6 o'clock. The playground looks deserted, you stop for some dessert. You take a sweaty, melty, gooey brick of chocolate wrapped in foil paper out from the pocket of your grey sweatpants. The sweatpants weren't gret when you bought them, but you haven't washed any clothes in a while. A small hand touches your shoulder. "Give me some chocolate," asks a tiny irritating voice.

You look around and see a small child, about six, and sick. "It's past six," you say, "and you seem sick, and just six, are you here alone?"

The small boy wipes thick streak of snot from his upper lip with his sleave. He coughs in your face without raising a hand, and you feel his spittle mist you. Ignoring your question, the boy reaches out a hand, palm up. "Chocolate," he insists.

You hand him your chocolate. He turns and runs away without a word. "What a cunt," you mutter to yourself as you get up and begin the stumble home.

It was raining outside. Or maybe snowing; I couldn't be bothered to check. I stormed through the door in a flurry of motion, boots and coat and scarf united in a gust that swept me out under wet, grey skies. Snowflakes caught in my hear - it was snow after all - and I wished for a moment I'd brought an umbrella. I didn't own an umbrella, but I'd always been fascinated with the long ones with curved wooden handles. They possessed an elegance that could be matched only by a suit and fedora, and I imagined I'd look rather dashing with it. I pull in a breath of frigid air and hold it for a moment (a trick I learned myself) before expelling a cloud of hazy fog. Perhaps it looks like I'm smoking.

The train was late, unfortunately, and my clothes were thoroughly soaked as I clambered on. My hands were freezing as well, and I was wondering if I might not lose a finger or two. Although I actually owned a pair of gloves, I rarely wore them. They were too tight, too restrictive, even though I had no particular use for my fingers. The faces around me are blank, though I take special care to inspect each. Some of them meet my eyes, but I've undoubtedly had more practice than them, and after a moment they look away.

There are 26 criteria on the psychopath scale; a very disturbed individual may meet up to fourteen of these. Occasionally, very rarely, someone may present with more than twenty characteristics that define them as possessing a psychopathic personality. Jeany not only met every criteria on the scale, they added an extra one just for her- they called it the Jeany factor- you had to enjoy and revel in your otherwise complete lack of empathy for living things.
The staff who cared for her in the forensic psychiatric unit all agreed, her eyes were the scariest part of her. They avoided any eye contact if they could, if they did manage to meet her gaze, she would lock on and never break until they did. One lost a finger while caught in her hypnotic stare, he didn't even realise that his fingers were in her mouth until he felt her teeth scraping on the bone of his ring finger.

The door opened, but he did not trust his eyes. The corridor that now lay in front of him was complacently white, and lit by the sun from the right windows.

Somberly he started walking down the corridor, making about 10 steps before hearing the elevator doors click.

He turned around and of course that fucking elevator was gone. His heart started to speed up and he put a hand on the wall, turning to look through the opposite window onto the garden.

But it wasn't a garden anymore. It was green, yes, but more than that it was moving. The brick path and the vines were indiscriminate in their existence; filling and switching between themselves based on the logic of some fallen god.

He slumped down, feeling his pants on the way to the floor. Why the fuck don't I have cigarettes at least; tragically the last sane, lucid thought he would experience until waking up in the elevator.

"...before the wolves came out" doesn't end with a preposition. "Came out" is a phrasal verb, which is just acting as an intransitive verb here. Your other suggestions are pretty good though. I think that last suggestion probably has something to do with the fact that he has what seems like an adverb clause that doesn't have a conjunctive adverb to kick it off.

I'm inclined to disagree with you here. Sure, it's a phrasal verb, but the sentence is still ending on a preposition. It just reads wrong, to me. Different strokes. This is how I would edit the writing. Other people would do it differently.

The ball flew through a broken window and landed in the cellar. One of the children, the fourteen-year-old daughter of the concierge, hobbled down after it. A tram had cut off one of her legs, poor thing, and so she was quite happy if she could at least pick up the ball after her playmates.
The cellar was in semi-darkness, but she thought she could see something stirring in a corner.
“Kitty!” the wooden-legged daughter of the concierge called out. “What are you doing down here, dear little kitty?”

She then picked up the ball and hurried off with it as fast as she could.

The old, ugly and foul-smelling rat – for it was a rat that had been taken for a kitten – was stunned. No one had ever talked to it like that before. Up till then everyone had been repulsed by it, pelted it with bits of coal, or fled screaming for their lives. But now, for the first time, it thought how different everything would have been if only it’d been born a kitten, or better yet – because we’re all insatiable, and it too continued to weave the web of its reveries – it thought how very wonderful it would have been if only it’d been born the lame daughter of a concierge.

One by one, they squeezed past me. Sitting as I was, I was taking up most of the bridge. I knew I was in the way for no good reason, I knew I was being a pillock, but I couldn’t let them see me move. And I didn’t know what I would be when I was older, but I knew I could never be like them. I hated them. I’d rather die. If I could see the future, if I knew that one day I’d be a middle-class twat like that, I’d dash my head off the pavement until my brain was a thick red paste.
But he had a point. It was cold. The temperature of the air had dropped a fair way since I sat down, and cold seeped up through my jeans from the concrete bridge. When I was finally sure they wouldn’t see, I stood up. I even brushed the dirt off my jeans. Sitting here had been a stupid idea. The dog-walkers would be right to think I was a weirdo cunt. If I had stayed there all night I’d have been dead by the morning, and I wouldn’t last three hours as a wanderer. I wouldn’t even be able to leave the suburbs.
The cold slowly killed off my dreams of rebellion. Fuck this body for needing warmth and food – the unkillable desires that bind us to society, however hard we try to escape. I slunk back home with my head down. Headlights passing felt like searchlights, or stage lights. Every passing car carried an audience that was seeing me at my weakest, but I had to keep walking, walking back to my parents so they could call me useless.
But it only hurt because I loved them. And they only hurt because they loved me too.

The Miserable
The third time I failed my theory test, I didn’t go home. Instead I sat on the motorway footbridge, full of envy and loathing for every car that passed under. I was gonna stay there all night, maybe sleep sitting up and rise with the sun, but the cold wind cut through my jacket, and in the end I couldn’t stay more than twenty minutes. In that twenty minutes, though, I thought about a lot. Thought about my parents; how, though they’d be worried if I didn’t come home, they’d call me a useless twat if I did. Thought of how in the morning I could just get up and walk for miles, how I’d make a new life wandering, doing odd jobs and trading stories.
One point I think I dozed off, woken minutes later by a cold nose and a wet tongue. I took the dog for a stray – wishful thinking, a companion for my new life on the road – but then I saw its collar and its lead, and its owners caught up. An old rich couple.
“Come along Suzi. You okay son?”
No. I wanted to knock the three of them from the bridge and dive down after.
“Yeah. Just watching traffic.”
“Well, okay. You’re not thinking of jumping are you?”
“No,” I lied.
“Okay, but mind you don’t get cold. Come on, Suzi.”

I went to bed late but woke up early. The coffee didn't make me feel less tired but it did make me feel less comfortable. I yawned and watched out the window. The grass was white, because it was cold. I hadn't worked for four months. I looked at my to-do list on my phone. I should call the psychiatrist. I left my number and then yesterday someone called me while I was in the shower and it was a private number so I couldn't call back. When the psychiatrist treats me maybe he will say that I have a personality disorder. Maybe he will say so to the government so that they give me money so that I don't have to work. I have promised myself that I will never work again. If they don't give me money I will have to make the situation escalate so that they will. If that doesn't work I will have to become a criminal. I would be a bad criminal because my heart isn't in it. I hope I have a personality disorder according to the psychiatrist.

It's probably one of those grass being greener on the other side kind of things where it looks great from here and then once I get there it'll be shit and I'll wish I was still here but then again maybe it'll be exactly the same which means it at least won't be worse and then at least I'll know which will probably make it better. Right? I hope it doesn't hurt. It's probably gonna hurt. I wonder how long it'll take. I think it's 9.8 something...maybe squared...fuck it, I can't remember. Oh well, here it goes.
And then the rock fell off the cliff.

My shitty contribution:

The riverside walk was mostly empty except for a strolling couple, walking silently side by side. Tourist season was over, and students were either having lectures or taking shelter from the dull and white sky, which imposed its heavily uncharacteristic light over the quiet and dreary city. I gently shivered on my solitary bench, which felt damp on my back and buttocks, as I observed the uncaring ducks with a certain envy which verged on the edge of vehemence. The muddy brown and emerald green forms floated nonchalantly in the canal, scattered over its rippling surface like overly realistic bath toys. Irritated, I dug in my warm
duffel coat breast pocket for my pack of cigarettes, and, with some difficulty, fished it out. My irritation faded away as the familiar rush of nicotine kicked in, and I relaxed on my moist wooden bench. A lone jogger in the latest waterproof tights and running gear huffed and puffed past my bench. I sat and waited.

God, I hate useless profanity in fiction. It's pretentious and lazy.

oh no...3 swear words. Sorry to offend your high sense of literary style with my gutter language. And you shouldn't use the Lord's name like that. It's sinful and disrespectful.

There was a climbing wall in the middle of the patio, and the people were cheering at the climbers. It was after sunset and the gaudy party lights flashed over everything. The music was a headache. I was sitting next to the snacks and I'd had too much soda.

By the time I decided to go over and climb up everyone had already gone over to the karaoke. I didn't care. I got the attention of one of the guys they'd hired for the thing. He left his beer and handed me a harness. I wasn't doing it for fun. I wanted to show them. Show them something (what?). I wanted some attention, in a way that wasn't pathetic.

It was just a novelty. It wasn't supposed to be very hard, but even I cheered when someone pushed the button at the top and started the little siren. It was hard. I almost slipped several times. But my sweaty hand was finally close to the button (not close enough). All muscles straining just to stay in place, I look around for a foothold and I realize nobody's watching. It doesn't matter because the alarm is enough. Once I do this I can just get down and start a conversation about it, see what they're up to, relax a little. Then I slip for real.

You forgot to add the part where the narrator falls ass-first on the 12in dragon dildo

I watched a seagull swallow a rock today.
It was a rather anticlimactic event, though I suppose seagulls usually spend their time doing anticlimactic things.
I was confused though, what would drive the seagull to eat that rock.
I wanted to lecture him on the facts of sedimentary deposits and their lack of nutrients, but he flew away.

Maybe the rock tasted good.

If there is love, we'd say it so. We'd tell the others why.
If there was love and then would all of us come run on down to lie in rouge and wait between the pillows and the catch.
What love would then us say, keep hollowed out the crackling in your wallets, let it love. A touch. A sight as this. If love would come on home we'd say it so.
We'd breathe it all, we'd yes, we'd mirror it, play daughter to the son of elder hands, keep us at grazing with a shuffle, all just stuck there lain in wait for just a suckle at a teat.
Come love, you'd say it so. We'd catch it long before it made its scurry for the outer, love. A touch. She'll sing it out. Keep daughter's suckling straight, her suckling narrow, rigid, not a drop is missed. She loves, she loves, she says she does. I'd sing, yes, love:

I will not say I miss her in the quiet but I do, I do, I do.

Birds eat rocks because they don't have teeth. The stones help to mush their food up in their stomachs.
