bizarro novella #1
THE SCOURGE
began amid the dizzying pyrotechnics of a spectacular thunder storm and a frenzied knuckle assault at an, as yet, undisclosed, door. Stewing in the bath was the only answer to these terrible twinges of pain her monthly scourge brought her. Geraldine Kablensk brought her head from beneath the soapy surface; sat up in her bath. Was she hearing things?

bizarro novella #2
YOU'RE IN MY PLACE
said a broad hipped woman in her late thirties, early forties. She spoke in the newly adopted dialect of Galimatia. The scruffy, leather jacketed man sat at the window table took no notice. It was a dull October afternoon in the heart of Angers, capitol of Galimatia. Early in the second millennium. It was 2:46 am on all the clocks across Europe.

bizarro novella #4
NOTHING HAD CHANGED.
Everything was exactly as I remembered. My personal surroundings were Universally intact. There sat I in my faded Stars & Stripes boxer shorts; cracked and faded Mickey Mouse T-shirt; Snoopy slippers - the hole my big toe poked through enlarging daily. My back was as bent and buckled as it had been since the Polio I had as a kid screwed me up into this ridiculous knotted wreckage of a body. I imagine that without this historical burden of malady I would be a rather tall individual. A strapping young lad - mothers might have mentioned as I passed them in the streets.

bizarro novella #5
MY NAME’S CLARKE.
That’s not my real name, of course, it’s a travelling name – a nomme de voyage. We all have travelling names, don’t we? Well, maybe it’s just me. Maybe when I go away on vacation, I don’t wanna be found. Maybe when I go away, I don’t want my mobile going off all the hours that God sends – I don’t even take it with me. Vacation means just that. Vacation. Escape from everything. If it wasn’t a true escape, there’d be no need to vacation, now would there?

THE BEST OF HIM+CHIM+HER
Chim+Her and Chim+Him were two separate titles originally published through Cyber Pulp Press of Houston. They showed how much fun one can have in collaboration with another writer of either sex.

Collaborations with Destiny West, Queenie Tirone, Dawn Andrews, Brutal Dreamer, Charlee Jacob, Amy Grech, Christina Sng, Alex Severin, Simon Logan, Mark McLaughlin, Vincent Sakowski, Greg Wharton, John Edward Lawson, D.F.

Hertzan Chimera died on the 14th of August 2004 after fourteen years typing like a madman.

Includes exclusive H.C.interviews with Jack Ketchum, Tom Piccirilli, Edward Lee, Charlee Jacob and others.
