Issue 8 of Meat Magazine is out now in high-quality newsagents and Borders nationwide. It’s got a short story from yours truly illustrated by the ingenious Richard Merrick (that’s his penis below those are his pants below; the penis is here, along with Merrick’s other illustrations. I’d like to thank my legal team for their hard work on my behalf).

The story’s called The Birds and The Beasts and it’s a comic recounting of a filth-ridden night out, with reflections on The Game and evolutionary psychology. To tempt you, here’s the first paragraph:

A bird is a chick is a doll is a babe is a girl (although never a woman). And the beasts? We are the beasts. Come to eat you up like so many late-night kebabs.

How can you resist?

UPDATE: Looks like Merrick’s got a blog. Regular updates on his anatomy there, for those who just can’t get enough.
