Thomas Ligotti Online - Nineteenth Anniversary
On February 4th, 1998, TLO was born.
Happy Belated Birthday (I forgot AGAIN), Thomas Ligotti Online! A heartfelt thank you to Brian Poe (aka Dr. Bantham) for his wonderful design, hosting and administrative prowess and to all the members of TLO past and present for making this an online community that continues to stand the test of time. Finally, thanks to Thomas Ligotti himself, as always. Here's to nineteen more years of TLO! | |||||||||||
"Thomas Ligotti is a master of a different order, practically a different species. He probably couldn’t fake it if he tried, and he never tries. He writes like horror incarnate.”
—Terrence Rafferty, New York Times Book Review

Re: Thomas Ligotti Online - Nineteenth Anniversary
I recall finding TLO during my early years of delving into the internet, after I had the luck to order a Ligotti volume from Mark Ziesing based on a short recommendation note within his printed catalog. I was elated to find another soul that was so inspired by Ligotti's work. Thanks be to the creator! | |||||||||||

Re: Thomas Ligotti Online - Nineteenth Anniversary
This site is already a significant part of weird fiction in general.
Aside from my email, I don't really see any reason to go anywhere else on the internet. | |||||||||||
"In a less scientific age, he would have been a devil-worshipper, a partaker in the abominations of the Black Mass; or would have given himself to the study and practice of sorcery. His was a religious soul that had failed to find good in the scheme of things; and lacking it, was impelled to make of evil itself an object of secret reverence."
~ Clark Ashton Smith, "The Devotee of Evil" |

TLO: a quiet, dark little corner in a cacophonic world bathed in cheap neon light. My refuge.
