I'm currently involved in a complete reading or re-reading of the works of Thomas Ligotti and Elizabeth Bowen.
Also soon coming to the end of reading submissions for the ZENCORE anthology (Nemonymous Seven). I have some mighty stories sent to me over the months. Really excited about the prospect of this. This will be a memorable book.
This keeps me busy.
Here are my systematic quotes from Bowen. I think you will find these startling:

My book 'Weirdmonger' (Prime 2003) seems at last to be taking off in a sort of cult way,
I'm also followng the pursuits of my two grown-up children.
I wrote this seascape yesterday:

Thanks God for these on-going pursuits. Otherwise life would be impoverished by death and entropy.

I've just read the story 'The Claimant' by Elizabeth Bowen. It's the first time I've ever read this as (tipped off by someone) this story is to be found in THE THIRD GHOST BOOK Ed. Lady Cynthia Asquith, not (for whatever reason) in the 'Collected Stories of Elizabeh Bowen'!
This story, for the first time, I feel, makes an EB ghost unutterably visible.
PS: Perhaps 'The Claimant' itself is a claimant to the EB canon! |
