I love epic music! For me it is a perfect combination of the classic orchestral scoring, chorales and electronica music that I have enjoyed for decades. This stuff inspires me, and is a great companion as I write away on an exiting piece of fiction. Therefore, on Mondays I share a new piece by various... Continue Reading →
Photo Finish Friday: ‘Wildfire’, by USFWS/Southeast
Click the picture above for full-size. On Photo Finish Fridays, I feature a selected piece of landscape photography that I have come across.

Throwback Thursday: H.P. Lovecraft’s Wilbur Whateley (1928)
Great and dreadful Cthulhu is without doubt Lovecraft’s most recognized creation, and many who are only casually aware of his work may think he’s the end-all and be-all of his work. I’d even personally go so far as to say that Cthulhu in the present day is overexposed, his shadow obscuring many of H.P.’s other... Continue Reading →

Lovecraft Tribute, by Juan Calle
Sorry folks, a shoggoth ate the Lovecraft essay that I was going to share with you today. :-( But never fear, I'll have it rewritten for next week's Throwback Thursday! In its place this afternoon, I offer you this little piece of tribute art featuring old HP and the secret of his inspirations instead. ;-)
WIP-it Wednesday: October 18th, 2017… About Me
It’s a different kind of WIP-it Wednesday today, as all my efforts this week have been focused on getting my writer’s website ready and starting my own small press publishing business. For some reason, all this work is complicated and time consuming. ;-) However, it’s also very exciting and rewarding! A major effort of mine... Continue Reading →
