And to round out the slew of posts today I’m very happy to finally announce my Lovecraftian-action novella ‘Vanguard’ (an adaptation of a screenplay I’m currently shopping) will be appearing in the long-awaited anthology Cthulhu: Deep Down-Under. Edited by giants of the Australian weird fiction field Christopher Sequeira, Steve Proposch and my old mate Bryce Stevens, CDDU will be announced/presented to the world Oct 18 & 19 at Armageddon Con in Melbourne.
It’s been torturous to keep quiet all year about this, so I’m sure the other amazing writers & artists in this collection are just as thrilled we can finally go public. How’s this for a role call: Stephen Dedman, Greg Chapman, Kaaron Warren, Geoff Brown, Jason Fischer, Steven Paulsen, Robert Hood, Lucy Sussex, Nick Stathopoulos, and many many more. Not to mention an intro by Ramsey Campbell. The boys have excelled themselves collating this.
Here’s Armageddon’s announcement:
