I'm trying my hand at an original Lovecraft-inspired short story. It centers around Yig, one of the lesser-known deities in the Cthulhu mythos. This snake god was featured in "The Curse of Yig" by H. P. Lovecraft and Zealia Bishop, published in 1929 under Bishop's name. I'm deliberately using a lot of "tell don't show" and minimal dialogue but not quite so wordy as Lovecraft was. - Realm of Darkness | Volume One Ongoing

It's not easy being an eldritch abomination in the 21st century, and when Monroe is kidnapped by strangely dressed and weirdly upfront government agents on a rainy September night, the whole thing becomes that much more complicated. For one, Monroe has never heard the term "eldritch abomination" before, which makes being referred to as such by the aforementioned kidnappers that much more confusing. Pulled into a web of conspiracies that envelop all of society, and the machinations of the agency that tries to keep the machinery oiled, Monroe is given a choice: co-operate using those particular eldritch abilities, or be killed. Only one problem. Monroe has no idea what they're talking about. - The hieroglyphs Complete
