Excerpt from The Craziest Fishing Tale on the Bayou:

“A streak of lightning lit up the sky, and the silhouette of the shrub became clear, hauntingly clear. I could make out a bulky, shaggy brown thing with two swaggering arms, two stubby legs, a thick torso, a watermelon-sized head, and two yellow, catlike eyes.

It was nothing out of the ordinary.

It was nothing weird at all.

Nothing—except for two spooky, yellow eyes that turned my way.”
