July – August 2017 Writing/Projects Recap
Happy Friday evening everyone! The autumn season is upon us, the summer has ended. I hope everyone had a great one?
July was spent recovering from my surgery, but also working behind the scenes on quite a few writing projects.
Writing News
Since turning in my manuscript for the Neo-Peplum book, that is more-or-less out of my hands now. However, the publisher did release the covert art, and I do think it is awesome: it has The Rock from Hercules right on the cover! So, check out the Goodreads page for it here:

Write now I am drafting a proposal for a joint book with Michele, and gathering prelim info for a few other book proposals. However, I still have plenty of other projects on my plate now that I need to finish up before moving onto my next big project I spearhead.
Academic News
Michele and I are still accepting proposals for the Ann Radcliffe Academic Conference for StokerCon 2018. Information on that can be found here:

Fanbase Press News
I had quite a bit of activity with Fanbase Press these past two monsths.
First, I did a review of the Lovecraftian anthology, The Children of Gla’aki, which can be found here:

Next, after the passing of George Romero, I did an In Memoriam for him here:

And finally, I did an interview with steampunk author Beth Cato, which can be read here:

HP Lovecast
In July we recorded an episode of the HP Lovecast podcast on the first three stories in the Heroes of Red Hook anthology. That can be listened to here:

Heilige Tod News
I did a minor essay for my neofolk blog. The day after Tobe Hooper passed away, I did up a nice article about him and his contribution to martial-industrial music by way of Laibach sampling his film, Lifeforce. That can be read here:

Current Projects
I just attended Long Beach Comic Con and my panel coverage has already been published at Fanbase Press. But since that was in September, I’ll have that up on that blog.
A review of an Allerseelen single was submitted to Heathen Harvest back in early August, waiting for it to publish.
Working on my essay for synthwave/Stranger things.
Working on redoing my Re-Animator presentation into book form.
Working on a book review for the Journal of Graphic Novels and Comics.
Working on an article for my neofolk blog on martial-industrial, cinema, and alternate soundtracks.
Plus, other things as they pop up.
Thanks for stopping by!
