Somehow...

I missed the snow that apparently sifted down on NYC this morning. I admit it I was asleep. I just heard about it when someone else mentioned it on FB. But it sure was cold. Tomorrow I'm off for four days down to the warmer weather of New Orleans. I haven't been there for at least 15 years, if not longer and I'm very interested in seeing it. And eating and searching for a large alligator skull (skinned thanks) to replace the one I'd had since 1986 and was "killed" by one of my cats. Also, to see if the voodoo dolls are different. When I attended the New Orleans Fantasy festival in the ...90s (I think) every year there would be different style voodoo dolls, which is why I have such a great collection. I'll be online but hopefully having too good a time partying with friends to be posting much.

The Chicago Tribune article about small horror presses came out Halloween weekend minus anything I contributed other than several of the recommended short stories. No credit. Except for the sourcing of Clive Barker's "Jacqueline Ess: Her Will and Testament" as Darkness" Two Decades of Modern Horror. So not a total waste of my time. But mostly yes.

There's going to be an extensive interview with me conducted by Darrell Schweitzer for Orson Scott Card's Medicine Show in one of the next issues. I'll mention it when it shows up.
