New Winslow

All that’s been buried is slowly resurfacing. But will it change anything in a town that refuses to acknowledge its curse? Final season now in progress on Patreon and Enfield Arts

[newwinslowma]

Welcome to New Winslow

“You know, people don’t exactly need a reason to stay in New Winslow.”

◆◆◆

A small town in the grip of a mysterious curse.

A population trying to live in its shadow.

And an impulsive promise that brings home two friends years after they left for good.

In New Winslow, stories weave in and out of each other. The town psychic seeks answers to something bigger than herself. Four friends warily reunite. And a man has made the most of his life, despite being trapped here for decades.

All that’s been buried is slowly resurfacing. But will it change anything in a town that refuses to acknowledge its curse?

---------------------

First things first: New Winslow is a serialized story. It is released seasonally, then each season is released as an ebook. You can read the series for free on my Patreon (posts are public, Patrons gets early access), EnfieldArts.com, or by downloading the ebooks for free on various retailers.

(I've seen it on pirate sites too, but it's free already and you're significantly less likely to download a virus from my patreon page.)

Physical copies are also available as paid products from many different bookstores including Waterstones, Powells, and Bookshop.org. The Retailer Links below will send you to both ebooks and paperback.

It's a slow moving paranormal mystery that was originally meant to be an audio drama. It's filled with queer friendship, wrestling with the idea of home, and the need to face the consequences of your decisions, good and bad.

It's also about Central Massachusetts and the Quabbin Reservoir, but probably not in the way you're thinking.

Start with Season One, Episode One.

I'll not get drunk anymore -   Kathy Tynan ,  2022.

Irish , b.  1984  -

Oil on canvas, 100 x 70 cm. framed

[homunculus-argument]

A story within a story where a mother sits her rowdy children down and tells them a story about a the world's sweetest, kindest mother who never lost her temper, never cursed and never yelled at her children, no matter how rowdy they could get. She would only gently, kindly told them to not do the dangerous things. One day she sweetly, kindly told her children to not go play at the riverbank, because it's dangerous and they might slip on the rocks, fall into the water, and die. Her children do not listen. They go play at the riverbank, where they slip on the rocks, fall into the water, and die.

And the sweet perfect mother of the story comes to the riverbank, sees that all her children drowned, and starts crying so bitterly that angels overhear her, and the angels say to each other, "she does not deserve this, this woman has never done anything wrong in her life, this should not have happened to her", and feeling great pity for her, bring her children back to life, and after that they always listened to their mother and lived happily ever after.

And the storyteller's children, who at this point are familiar with the concept that these stories are supposed to have some sort of a moral or lesson in them, interject to point out that their mother hasn't always done everything perfectly, she isn't always sweet, curses a lot, and as a matter of fact loses her shit at her kids all the time. She isn't like the mother of the story at all.

And their mother agrees: Her children are correct. She is not a perfect mother who has never done anything wrong. Angels will not have pity on her, and they will not bring her little shits back to life if they go to the river and die. So they better fucking not go get themselves killed in the first place.

[newwinslowma]

Andrew was never going to stay in town and he made the choice he had to make. But he's not sure he could have made a worse decision right before he left for good.

[newwinslowma]

Andrew Harris - swore he'd never come back to New Winslow, not after his mother spent so many years trapped in that town, and not after giving up what he did in order to get out. So you'll never guess what just happened.

[newwinslowma]

Cleo Rodriguez - A Boston-based musician whose career is starting to take off. But she's so flustered by her maybe-girlfriend chatting with her mom like old friends that - before she knows it - she's agreed to return and help her mom move house in her cursed hometown

[newwinslowma]

Noah Kelly - Two years out from his father's death, trying to help Liv with her baby and ignore the fact that the man who broke his heart is back in town. And yeah, maybe he's been drinking a little too much lately, but it's not that big of a deal.

[newwinslowma]

Iris Davies - the town psychic. She might be a little too proud of that role at times, but she's good at what she does. So that means it should be on her to solve this curse, right?

Roman Beckett - With a business to run and a house full of kids, Roman has other things to think about besides the fact he's been physically trapped in one small town for twenty-two years. That is, until he meets a woman who's been there much longer.
