(You see what I did there,with Bumbarella chained up on the floor at the mercy of a murdering French man.
It's a scene from Casino Royale.Bond didn't get raped but he got tortured.Le Chiffre,the French man,had a chair that had a hole in the center.James Bond was tied up naked and his balls were brutalized by a fiendish device operated by a foot pedal.Just before he passed out from the pain,he saw a Smersh agent shoot Le Chiffre in the head.He himself only got the initials of the Russian spy organization carved into his hand....Turning a story you love into fan fiction is easy;just change the names and whatever else that might get you into a lawsuit.Bumbarella is ,of course, Barbarella,only she's a second cousin ,and she's not as nice as Barbarella.
By now you've probably realized that I am not writing a novel.I wish I could.The closest I ever came was with Space Monster Bloodbath.The best I can come up with is a very long short story.I, myself,have tried to get the attention of Random House,Viking, Penguin,and all the rest of them but finally gave it up in despair twenty years ago.Fuck it....The allegorical journey is the most difficult....turning your own crazy,fucked life into fiction brings up ghosts you would rather keep in the grave....For instance,the Gumpf,that floating disembodied face smoking a joint,he was a close friend a long time ago.He was a drug addict, just as were the rest of us.He died of a heart attack years ago.I wrote about another friend of mine,T-,who hanged himself beneath a tree ;in my stories he usually some demon out of Hell with eyes of fire....It was excruciating to write about Holly,my first girlfriend.I treated her like shit and finally abandoned her like Van Gough did to his prostitute in Paris.....she was so innocent,pure of heart, when I first met her,putting flowers everywhere... she's had far more of her fair share of misery in her life,and I certainly didn't do her any favors by breaking her heart decades ago,when she needed strength....so I tried to ease my conscious by turning her clone into a hideous cyclopes monster who in the end sacrificed herself for the good of the universe.She made Captain Space look like a piece of shit for what he did to her...You can fool everyone else,like they say,but you can't fool the guy in the mirror..... William Shatner brought his wife back to life,only to have her die a more heroic death in fiction....At least we as writer's can do that.Not everyone can.You can relive the horrors of the past again and again and again,until you either pick up a gun and blow your brains out or work it out through fiction,like I do.Writing is therapy.)
