  • Things are fine here for me and my family, despite the crisis. Thank you for asking.
    Thanks for the Short Tour link -- it has brought back many memories. I long to return to Providence, Marblehead and Boston, & yet my memory of them (aided by tons of photos) is so clear that I can still taste those days mentally. I need but close my eyes and I am walking Beacon Hill once more, those lovely lanes.
    Yes, I am extremely devoted to Lovecraft and determined to establish myself as an author in his tradition. He has given me so much -- such rewards in this thing called "life". HPL has given me the happiest of my joys, my sanest hours; he has given me my "career" (such as it is) an an author. So, yes, I am extremely loyal. I have no interest in working with film people, and am clueless about writing screenplays and such. I like films that are true-to-source, because filming Lovecraft's texts as he wrote them -- or as close to the original as possible -- will lead to brilliant & disturbing cinema. I especially want to see "The Dunwich Horror" filmed exactly as Lovecraft wrote it. I hunger to see Del Torro (is that his name, the gent who made Pan's Labyrinth?) film "At the Mountains of Madness."
    I do not think that At the Mountains of Madness cou'd be improv'd in any way. Eerily, I just saw an audio recording of it at University Bookstore, complete & unabridg'd, & I am considering buying it despite ye hefty price of $27.95. It wou'd be, I think, hypnotic to listen to it read, with all of ye scienctific terms precisely utter'd. I'm also debating shou'd I buy a softcover edition of HPL's Complete Poems, to have here at my writing desk as resource item. I have ye tome in hardcover in my Weird Poetry section, but I like having extra "work" copies which become well-thumb'd. It is here that I have ye three Penguin Lovecraft editions that I carry'd with me when S. T. Joshi took us on a Lovecraftian walking tour of Providence -- I held them in my trembling palm as I stood before #10 Barnes Street -- an incident that has never been equal'd in my too-long dreary life.
    My bleeding computer is possess'd by my O Brother, Where Art Thou screensaver, and it keeps playing "Man of Constant Sorrow" and cowbell noises -- oy!! & when I try to message you, it logs me out!! It began doing this at mid-night. This is my 4th attempt. I'm also watching, as I type, a Michael Buble dvd on my other, my new, laptop -- which to-morrow will be ye computer on which I do everything. It's so chaotic, this techno hoodoo world. Wish I knew how to scan photos, I love Aggeliki's gorgeous images! Of course, degenerate queer that I am, I'd fill all of yout profiles with Barbra Streisand & Boy George -- so, you lucked out that I'm so computer ignorant. Stay cool, Mister Dekorte.
    The track is a gift from theshaunz. He has a big ambient collection and he has given a track to yellowish haze too. Would you like one for your profile?
    You 're welcome Steve. I was talking to my best friend yesterday and she told me we will probably spend our next summer vacation in Santorini!
    Hullo, Steve:--
    Thanx for ye friendship request. I was on a wee bit earlier, but I've been at this keyboard all day and my eyes are blurring and my fingers going cramp. Stopped to watch some telly, but telly and everything else is boring compared to this, so I'm back for an hour or so, and then I must enter slumber. I look forward to getting to know ye. Best, --wilum
    I guess you like Depeche Mode..I've seen that particular perfomance live, almost crying..
