Some girls wear makeup to enhance their natural beauty. Some wear it to make themselves look sexy and mature, in the hopes to attract the attention of a paramour. Darcy wears hers as a mask, a deterrent, a tribute of sorts to the musical group who got her through her parents' messy divorce.

β¦ Synopsis
βHackle may be the best absurdist story writer working today.β βBradley Sands, author of TV Snorted My Brain Within the whacked-out worlds of these twisted tales, only one thing remains the same: Everything is better when laced with the tears of a clownβ¦ When a sexually adventurous couple decides to spice things up by bringing bees into the mix, they learn itβs never wise to dial 811 in case of an emergency. A deadbeat dad gains employment as a lady-in-waiting in a fairytale bromance where every character looks exactly like someone else from John Carpenterβs The Thing. The unknowing victim of a cruel prank, a simpleton spends his entire life waiting on a park bench for the hottest girl in school. Using only his twenty-sided die and good old-fashioned D&D magic, a man must continually resurrect the neighborhood kid regularly murdered on his own front lawn. An aging slaughterhouse worker and the iconic figure from Edvard Munchβs The Scream hit the clubs every weekend in a vain attempt to get laid. These and many more absurdities await in Clown Tear Junkies, the debut collection from Douglas Hackle.
