In My Head




Did you know the violent crime rate among schizophrenics is no higher than that of the general population?

It’s true. Hollywood gives us a bad rap but, although we do hear voices telling us to do some depraved shit, that doesn’t mean we act on it.

Jam your pen down his fucking eye socket!

That, for instance, is what I heard shouted in a voice much deeper and gruffer than my own as I walked into the boardroom and greeted my boss.

“Good morning, Ken,” I call, in what I personally believe was a noticeably non-pen-stabbing way.

“Morning,” he answers, “Get yourself some coffee and take a seat.”

Throw the coffee at him, the voice shouts as a colleague passes me the coffee pot, Smash the pot and use a shard of glass to slice his dick off!

Instead, I smile and thank him.

As I walk over to take my seat as the voice throws out random demands.

Bite his fucking ear off!

Rip her chair out from under her and bash her skull in!

As I sit down, it’s stopped demanding things and started laughing obnoxiously. Unusually active today, it’s making it difficult to hear Ken welcome our newest VP to the front.

The voice is really more of a bully than-

It abruptly goes silent as the new VP introduces himself. He flashes a smile at me - quick but definitely at me - and begins his presentation.

I stare without understanding. His face is unfamiliar, but I know his voice all too well.

A Wish Come True (A Short Story)

I woke up with a start when I found myself in a very unfamiliar place. The bed I was lying on was grand—an English-quilting blanket and 2 soft pillows with flowery laces. The whole place was fit for a king! Suddenly the door opened and there stood my dream prince: Katsuya Kimura! I gasped in astonishment for he was actually a cartoon character. I did not know that he really exist. “Wake up, dear,” he said and pulled off the blanket and handed it to a woman who looked like the maid. “You will be late for work.” “Work?” I asked. “Yes! Work! Have you forgotten your own comic workhouse, baby dear?” Comic workhouse?! I…I have became a cartoonist? That was my wildest dreams! Being a cartoonist! I undressed and changed into my beige T-shirt and black trousers at once and hurriedly finished my breakfast. Katsuya drove me to the workhouse. My, my, was it big! I’ve never seen a bigger place than this! Katsuya kissed me and said, “See you at four, OK, baby?” I blushed scarlet. I always wan...

Hans and Hilda

Once upon a time there was an old miller who had two children who were twins. The boy-twin was named Hans, and he was very greedy. The girl-twin was named Hilda, and she was very lazy. Hans and Hilda had no mother, because she died whilst giving birth to their third sibling, named Engel, who had been sent away to live wtih the gypsies. Hans and Hilda were never allowed out of the mill, even when the miller went away to the market. One day, Hans was especially greedy and Hilda was especially lazy, and the old miller wept with anger as he locked them in the cellar, to teach them to be good. "Let us try to escape and live with the gypsies," said Hans, and Hilda agreed. While they were looking for a way out, a Big Brown Rat came out from behind the log pile. "I will help you escape and show you the way to the gypsies' campl," said the Big Brown Rat, "if you bring me all your father's grain." So Hans and Hilda waited until their father let them out, ...
