Two Weird Bits

At ICFA, someone acquired and read, overnight, a copy of The Last Weekend, and the next day wanted to ask me about my life as a young person in Youngstown, Ohio, a place I have never even visited.

And then, this week, this happened, with regards to my Long Island story about the Ricky Kasso murder from Phantom, "A Stain on the Stone":



This was weirder, given than Phantom is obviously a horror anthology, and many of the surrounding stories are supernatural. And then continuing to ask even about side characters...


I expect I'll get a lot more of this sort of thing when I Am Providence comes out this summer. "How did you write the book if you were killed last year at that convention...?"
