I've released my story The Dunwiwch Nightmare as a stand-alone novella. Originally published in Remnants anthology, it's a modern take on The Dunwich Horror set on the East Anglia coast. The first of a trilogy, its available direct or via Amazon. Right on, Rob!

Ulthar Press will be publishing an anthology, PICKMAN'S GALLERY, early next year (they are hoping for March 2018 to coincide with the StokerCon in Providence.) As you might guess from the name, the theme is "Pickman's Model" inspired tales.

Yes, they are. (I should have mentioned, PICKMAN'S GALLERY is edited by Matthew Carpenter, who has done some of the Lovecraft eZine editing and was editor on A LONELY AND CURIOUS COUNTRY)

A cool Mythos poem written in an ancient Welsh meter... The Summoner
He studied the forbidden, ancient tomes.
He yearned to learn the secrets that were lost.
Over eldritch lore he had poured: chants, poems,
Thirsting for the accurst. Bought at great cost—
Paid by man’s blood—the Necronomicon
He’d read in dread. The writings of John Dee;
Long hid, forbidden books of Babylon;
Egypt’s lost spells; Hells of all History
He'd opened up their gateways in his quest.
Ten thousand restless days he had spent.
But then—at last! he knew he had the key!
To use it proved him mad—soon They sent
A horror that mere words cannot convey.
Whither he went with that Thing—none can say.
~ Frank Coffman ~

"As for me—Tsathoggua made such an impression on my fancy that I am using him in the “revision” (i.e.—“ghost-writing”) job I am now doing—telling of some things connected with his worship before he appeared on the earth’s surface. As you know my tale concerns a nether world of unbelievable antiquity below the mound-&-pueblo region of the American southwest, & the visit thereto in 1541–45 by one of Coronado’s men—Panfilio de Zamacona y Nuñez. It is a place litten by a blue radiance due to magnetic force & radio-activity, & is peopled by the primal proto-humans brought down from the stars by Great Cthulhu—a forgotten, decadent race who cut themselves off from the upper world when Atlantis & Lemuria sank. But there was a race of beings in the earth infinitely older than they—the saurian quadrupeds of the red-litten caverns of Yoth which yawn underneath the bluelitten caverns of K’n-yan. When the first men came to K’n-Yan they found the archaeological reliques of Yoth, & speculated curiously upon them. At the point where I introduce our friend Tsathoggua, the Spanish explorer has entered K’n-yan, has encountered a party of friendly natives led by one Gll’-Hthaa-Ynn, & is being escorted to the great city of Tsath—mounted on a monstrous horned & half-human quadruped."
-- H. P. Lovecraft to Clark Ashton Smith, 19 December 1929An early, darksome glimmering of the Cthulhu Mythos. Lovecraft's divergent account of the advent of Tsathoggua upon Earth led Smith to retcon/harmonize it with his own, original account. The "revision" HPL refers to is The Mound: www.hplovecraft.com/writings/texts/fiction/mo.aspx
