publication update and other notes

Happy birthday to the fabulous beledibabe! May your day be as wonderful as you are, and may this year be your best yet!

Today is the debut of my essay ""'Strange and Fearful Imaginations': Rediscovering the Terror of Baron de la Motte Fouqué," about the great author of The Magic Ring and many other classic works. It is included in the newest issue (#8) of Apex Science Fiction and Horror Digest, which is available for purchase online and at the newsstands of most major booksellers.

For the Lovecraft fans, the latest podcast from The Atlanta Radio Theatre includes a wonderful dramatization of "The Colour Out of Space." (Thanks to vaklam for the recommendation.)


"Baron Fouqué appears, indeed, to unite the delicacy and rich pathos of Tasso with something of the wildness and terrible delineations of Shakespeare."
The Monthly Review, 1820

You might want to try to get the following MP3 disk, which has the Suspense adaptation of The Dunwich Horror.

It also has several episodes of other horror/mystery OTR shows, some good, some not. But it's only five bucks plus shipping. It even includes The Thing on the Fourble Board.
