R.C. Mulhare has the distinction of reading a translation of the famous cursed play "The King in Yellow" without going mad, once successfully defended her day-job workplace from zombies, through some judicious use of clearance-rack garden tools, survived a fight with Yog-Sothoth cultists in a hallway of a hotel in Providence; she's also picked up some extra work editing posts for the product blog of Umbrella Corporation...

In actuality, R.C. Mulhare was born in Lowell, Massachusetts and grew up in one of the surrounding towns, in a hundred year old house up the street from an old cemetery. Her interest in the dark and mysterious started when she was quite young, when her mother read the faery tales of the Brothers Grimm and quoted the poetry

Hoo, this is a tough question but a great one!

I'd like to see a TV series based off the characters in "The Witch Who Blew In On the Storm", as I have a lot of backstory and world building that didn't make it into the finished story. I'd already done some mental casting while I was writing the story, with Christina Hendricks as Sibyl Fletcher and Jeffrey Combs as Carton Tillinghast. Also, Carton has shown up in a couple other (yet to be published) stories, and he's gradually becoming my answer to Carl Kolchak.(less)

Lovecraft's Arkham or G.R.R. Martin's Westeros, anyone??). A much younger R.C. would have loved to live in Narnia (my mother can attest to the times I've tapped on the back of the wardrobe in what used to be our spare room), while these days I'd love to travel with Le Cirque du Reves of Erin Morgenstern's "The Night Circus". I'd either be one of the fans or possibly a performer (some kind of living sculpture or just an oddball who helps add to the gently gothic atmosphere).(less)

[Archive] Horror Writing in a Time of Plague…

We live interesting times, in the sense of the old curse.

So the writing has gotten a bit rocky: a family member came down with a bad head cold (no, not COVID-19, thank heaven) and I had my hands full taking care of them. Also my day job has been utter madness. I’ve worked in this company for eighteen years. I’ve seen people stocking up for hurricanes and snowstorms. I’ve worked during the major ho Read more of this blog post »

Joseph Heller
“Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you.”
Joseph Heller, Catch-22

Robert A. Heinlein
“Never attempt to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and annoys the pig.”
Robert Heinlein, Time Enough for Love

Elbert Hubbard
“No man needs a vacation so much as the man who has just had one.”
Elbert Hubbard

Raymond Chandler
“down these mean streets a man must go who is not himself mean, who is neither tarnished nor afraid. He is the hero; he is everything. He must be a complete man and a common man and yet an unusual man. He must be, to use a rather weathered phrase, a man of honor—by instinct, by inevitability, without thought of it, and certainly without saying it. He must be the best man in his world and a good enough man for any world.

“He will take no man’s money dishonestly and no man’s insolence without a due and dispassionate revenge. He is a lonely man and his pride is that you will treat him as a proud man or be very sorry you ever saw him.

“The story is this man’s adventure in search of a hidden truth, and it would be no adventure if it did not happen to a man fit for adventure. If there were enough like him, the world would be a very safe place to live in, without becoming too dull to be worth living in.”
Raymond Chandler

H.P. Lovecraft
“The world is indeed comic, but the joke is on mankind.”
H. P. Lovecraft

message 1: by R.C.

R.C. Mulhare Probably right now, it looks like I'm starting a lot of books and getting too many irons in the fire. What's happening is, I've been rummaging on my shelves, finding stuff I started and never finished. Putting them up here is, in a way, a reminder to myself to get back to that half-forgotten tale that I need to return to and do that soon. Admittedly, I sometimes get distracted and set a book aside, intending to get back to it some day, but you know what they say about the road paved by good intentions.
