Wellington Leg: Prehistoric monster and general gaddabout Mothra recently resigned from Wellington Leg’s Privy Council. Now comes the bombshell news that M, as she is known these days, is writing a tell all about her days advising the Big Fat Guys, the towne’s cabal of movers and shakers. Publisher Marty of Wellington Leg Premier indicates that a CD will accompany the book providing background noises and in some cases actual conversations by members of the Privy.
Her Second Career: Mothra spent a decade in Hollywood after indie success ravaging towns and cities in post war Japan. Perhaps disillusioned she left Hollywood and settled in Wellington Leg’s artsy Broadway neighborhood where beat poets once flourished. Accompanied by a pair of tiny singing geishas Mothra became a fixture on the night club scene.
Inspired by the Earl? Mothra turned to writing after a chance encounter with the forty third earl. She consumed all of his books and ate a lot of junk food reaching a peak weight of 20,000 tonnes. After slimming down with the Earl’s unappetizing prose Mothra entered local politics.
Godzilla Proof: Perhaps Mothra’s signature skill is disrupting Godzilla’s atomic breath laser beam stunt so familiar to art house fans. She can also direct bolts of lightning from her wings. This came in handy when negotiating her book deal: “First we offered 50 dollars for her book,” Publisher Marty recalled. “Then she flambeed my vintage Pinto.”
Additional money made no difference: “It turns out that Mothra eats money,” Marty said. “I thought it gave us something in common,” he added.
Eddie’s Book Nook has ordered fifty copies of the memoir. “I like her platform: I’m five hundred feet tall and have name recognition. I think she’s smoking hot.”
Cute.
