Any idea when review copies will be available, said the publisher of a Lovecraftian zine? :)

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

Presumably when the book is out :-) The only galleys that will be available will be handmade by my in-house editor so there won't be many--primarily for the trade mags like Publishers Weekly, Library Journal, and Kirkus, who require them several months in advance. I'm assuming you can wait till publication?

What magazine is it?

[silviamg.livejournal.com]

Innsmouth Free Press (http://www.innsmouthfreepress.com/). Online zine, Lovecraftian. We're launching in a month.

Yep, we can wait until pub. If there's only so many physical galleys, we love PDF copies. I'm in Canada and the reviewers are in other countries.

Nice cover btw.

Great!
I can probably get you a pdf file in advance (I hate them for reading, myself) but not yet. I should be getting the copy edit in a few weeks. If you give me your email and mailing address (you can contact me at datlow at yahoo dot com) I'll put you on the list for a review copy.

Awesome. Thank you.

I LOVE the cover! I have often wished that AH would have used Lovecraft on the newer dust jackets of their three volumes rather than the rather awful cartoonish art they've used. Lovecraft looks so cool and he can look so odd -- why use anything else on a cover of his Works? I am so excited about this book. I'm off to list its contents on ye thread devoted to your INFERNO at TLO!
