Gizmo is a dark romantic/comedy/fiction/fantasy where the main character “Gizmo” finds herself trying to survive in a post-apocalyptic world with her infant son, The closer I got to him the harder he cried. I yanked him out of the barrel into my arms and shoved the bottle into his mouth to silence him . He gripped the bottle so tight I could see the fog on the bottle his little warm hands created.
