Biweekly News Roundup 2022-10-09
Three weeks in a row of articles at my website. I hope I can keep up the momentum.
Two New Book ReviewsI’ve published not one but two book reviews at my website in the past two weeks.
First up, stepping in the realm of middle grade, I’ve done a review on Lora Senf’s debut novel, The Clackity. It can be read right here.
Book TemplateMonster mayhem continues in my second book review which is on Robert P. Ottone’s newest novel, Nocturnal Creatures. This one can be read right here.
New Episodes of H. P. LovecastMore double trouble, two episodes of the H. P. Lovecast Podcast have also been published in the last two weeks.
First is our monthly Transmissions program. For September we interviewed Brenda S. Tolian and Ian Welke. That episode can be listened to at our Buzzspout page, the embedded link below, or via your podcast app of preference.

This episode can be streamed at the HP Lovecast Buzzsprout page, via the embedded link below, or via your podcast app of preference.
https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1022692.rssHorror Book Sale at McFarlandMcFarland is doing a sale on horror books during the month of October. During checkout, use the code “HORROR22” to get 25% of books in their horror category.
There’s three books included in the sale I have involvement in (The Twilight Zone book is tagged as horror, but it isn’t out yet, so I’m not sure if the sale applies to it or not):
Horror Literature from Gothic to Post-Modern Horror in Space Uncovering Stranger ThingsThis is a great opportunity to pluck these books up and be supportive to what Michele and I do.
Miscellaneous TidbitsFootage Fiends ZineEvan Jordan of the Void Video Podcast and Madeleine of the are launching a brand new zine called Footage Fiends that is devoted to all aspects of the found footage genre of films. Tweet embedded below:
Exciting news: my good friend @DVDBoxSet and I are starting the first ever zine exclusively covering in-world camera films (found footage, mockumentary, faux doc, screenlife, hybrid, etc.) and we're now accepting pitches for the first issue!
