Tim Lieder's INFERNO review

[ellen_datlow]

Thank you Tim for a very entertaining review. I suspect Jeff will get a kick out of your comment.

or,who's f...g with whom?


spoiler alert



















Interesting that you think Lucius's story is a meditation about the Manson family--certainly possible, but that hadn't occurred to me. I have no idea if that was in his mind when he wrote it. Perhaps he can comment here.

Best intro. Ever. :)

And so true!

Too much love--you're giving me a swelled head.

Don't you know, we refer to you as THE Datlow over here. =)

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

Oh no!!! Not like "The Donald," I hope ;-) (you know who I mean Charles?)

[charlesatan.livejournal.com]

Donald Trump? (Somehow, Donald Duck doesn't inspire as much fear as Trump's hairstyle.)

Besides, it'd make for a great story if a horror editor can inspire fear in real life. =) Unfortunately, you cat avatar quickly dispels that notion...

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

Yup. The Donald--ick! Well, I could try to take a photo of one of them being vicious!

I agree. Commence with head-swelling: it's deserved. :D

Just wait till it explodes! Like a pumpkin (heh) Can you tell I read too much horror?

[livia-llewellyn.livejournal.com]

Hey, I'm sitting in an office decorated with skulls, Elder God artwork, and an Alien facehugger plushy. There's no such thing as too much horror. :P

You've never been to MY place, have you? (LOL)--I've got a couple of plush Cthulhu dolls (one in a Hawaiian shirt) but no Alien facehugger--that sounds neat.

[livia-llewellyn.livejournal.com]

A house is not a home without an Alien plushy At least, in my twisted little world.

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

Hmmm. I actually like the chestbuster better :-)

[livia-llewellyn.livejournal.com]

Hee hee!

Seriously. I can only hope to get one of my stories into a Datlow anthology.
