Glen Hirshberg's Blog - Posts Tagged "rolling-darkness-revue"

In preparation for teaching Motherless Child at the University of Ottawa last week, the redoubtable Sean Moreland conducted a new interview with me for the excellent Postscripts to Darkness website and zine. That interview, plus a rare reprint of my story, "Like Lick Em Sticks, Like Tina Fey"--the vampire tale I swore I'd never write, that triggered the trilogy I couldn't have imagined--can be found at the link above. Sean and James Greatrex also conducted the longest and best interview ever with Peter Atkins and me about the Rolling Darkness Revue a few years back, and you can find that archived on the site as well.
Special kudos to Sebyth for the stunning illustration,

which I so wish could be the cover of the forthcoming MOTHERLESS paperback...

The line-up for the last (?) Rolling Darkness Revue shows. Dates and location should follow by the end of the weekend. And just wait until you see the chapbook cover...
