a sickly moment of dark surprise

Yesterday, I wrote 822 words on "Some Notes on an Unfinished Film," which is becoming quite interesting. But now I have to set it aside and go back to work on The Red Tree. The story will still be there later this month. I might have time to finish it for Sirenia Digest #34, maybe. If not, it will likely show up in the October issue. Vince and I ( Read more... )

I really should give second life another look with my new computer setup.

The planned fate of the remaining living is most chilling.

It's one of those things that seemed so obvious to me, and I can't, offhand, think of it having been done before. Except, perhaps, in Matheson's I Am Legend, but those weren't zombies.

But the magic of #33 is the power of combination of story, artwork, interview, photos, and excerpt is quite powerful.

Cool. Yeah, I've been hoping that adding the artist/photographer interview feature is really bringing something new.

I forgot to mention that Not One of Us will be reprinting "Flotsam" in an upcoming issue. October, I think.

Oh excellent! One of my stories will be there as well! It's nice to know it will be in such good company.

This month, however, he's going to do a drawing, and then send it to me, at which point I'll write a story based in it.

Awesome. I look forward.

This planned story really does sound very intriguing (- as does the "write from a picture" project you have planned with Mr. Locke for next issue; see Harlan's "Rock God" for finished results of a similar approach).

As I say below, it's really not like I haven't been doing quite a bit of this already (just not with a drawing done specifically to inspire to inspire me). I am glad people are excited about it.

As regards "Unfinished Film," however, the recent discovery of some lost Marilyn Monroe footage might prove of interest to you:

Cool! Thanks.
