Re: LAIRD BARRON

@Geoffrey
TBH, you could have just stated your own opinion of Barron's fiction or challenged those posts that you've thought to be particularly silly, rather that going on and derailing the whole...

Re: LAIRD BARRON

I think that most (active) members of this forum are blocked by fair number of authors on various social networks. :D
It's like one of those badges that Murricans give to their boy scouts.

Re: LAIRD BARRON

To be far, that penchant for self-conscious parodies also smacks of someone who is simply tired of the genre, but keeps writing within it because, as others said, that is what people expect from him....

Re: LAIRD BARRON

If I didn't know better, I'd say that it was custom-built to annoy some folks around here! I mean, it even has Pizzolatto up there. :D

Joking aside, I wish him all the luck if that is what he...

Re: Wanted: The Rite of Trebizond and Other Tales

His current rating at Abebooks is mere 2 stars, so it looks like he has a fair number of cancelled orders there too.

Re: LAIRD BARRON

I'm definitely looking forward to Joshi's "21st-Century Horror". It will be interesting to hear more of his thoughts on Oliver, here's hoping that his opinion of him hasn't dropped too much (his...

Re: Sarob Press

They sure are engaging in some old-fashioned hype-mongering here. Not that I blame them, given that there appears to be quite a bit more interest for The White Road reprint than there is for their...

This sounds promising:

Re: Print vs. EBooks

Honestly, I prefer print books too. But, at this point in my life, price and accessibility are of utmost importance.

Re: I'm looking for good, well written, contemporary science fiction

Not a single mention of Peter Watts? You'd be hard pressed to find more overtly "Ligottian" hard SF.

Re: Ligotti panel at NecronomiCon Providence 2017

I don't know of him "bullying" anyone, nor do I see how anything in their relations with that bunch could be seen as bullying.

Unless some folks are deeply offended by "nasty old atheists" openly...

I wouldn't be surprised if Ligotti is in minority with his reading of Schulz. That was never my main impression of his fiction either. Yeah, there's some nightmarish and sad stuff in there, but...
