HPLFF Postmortem
Well, I am recently returned from my trip to the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival at the Hollywood Theatre in Portland OR. I had a wonderful time and made a slew of new friends! I also realized that some day I am going to have to move to the Northwest!
Even though I was at a film festival, I only got to watch one film! I saw a full length feature period adaptation of the Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, that was a little different than the original tale, but definitely kept to the spirit of the source material.
The rest of the time I spent at the Jackanapes Press table, selling & signing books, and getting to know my stable mates: Adam Bolivar, Pete Rawlik and John Shirley, and Jackanapes founder/editor/designer, illustrator Dan Sauer. Everyone was supercool and I feel that I now have four new brothers.
Book of Shadows sold well for a first book by an unknown author and I hope to be seeing online reviews in the near future!
