INGRID IS HUNGRY by Yah Yah Scholfield / a hungry, hungry horror story / 2,034 words / sharp objects, gillian flynn / mothers who can't love, susan forward / saturn devouring his son, goya
Hi, so! If you've been following me on Tumblr for the past few weeks, you'd see how I've been talking about disordered eating + this story about emotionally incestuous relationships, and really just digging into some deep issues. Here is the culmination of that, a short story I've titled Ingrid is Hungry. I wrote this as a commission for @necrokris, and they were kind enough to allow me to share this with you all! Ingrid is Hungry is about Ingrid, a young woman writing emails to her mother with whom she has a very strained relationship. Themes+ inspirations include: familial cannibalism, Jenette McCurdy's memoir I'm Glad My Mom Died, Sharp Objects, Kendall Roy's relationship with his father + with food, and an upsetting amount of first/second-hand experience with disordered eating and horrible mother-daughter relationships. I would say tread lightly if you think you might be extra sensitive to these topics, because I did not hold back.
