Essays by and on Ligotti?
hey everyone I'm so glad to now be apart of this community. I had found in the collapse journal in the 4th issue theres an essay the shadow of the puppet dance by james Trafford as well as thinking horror by thomas ligotti himself and was surprised to find this type of writing by him after I finished TCATHR. I was blown away by this analysis on ligottis writing and have been seeking more. I had heard of how, in the old days, Matt Cardin would pump out tons of analyses on Ligottis stories. After reading this analysis I just crave more and wonder if anyone ever compiled a sort of list of these types of analyses on ligotti? After getting the newest copy of Vastarien I plan on getting a copy of Born into fear as well as will get the Ligotti reader with those essays. But I found a few academic ones behind paywalls that I still was able to get around. Heres a list of those similar analyses that I've since compiled. and am reaching out to if there are any members who have wrote their own? as I would be greatly appreciative or if you have links to the ones I dont have. perhaps this could be a joint effort.

I can’t actually find the book to check (it’s in my room somewhere) but in Ramsey Campbell, Probably his essay collection I’m sure there’s one about Ligotti
