David Foster Wallace has been praised as one of America’s finest authors by critics and fans alike.

Robert’s work was very influential on me as I grew my reading roots. His books, alongside Tolkien, helped me develop a love for the fantasy genre.

How hilariously true it is.

I stumbled upon something that might sway me a little from my soap box.

It was as if Brain Lumley was destined to be a horror writer from birth. He was born in the UK just nine months after H.P. Lovecraft had passed, and, to begin with, Lumley was a dedicated sci-fi fan. It wasn’t until he started serving time in the Royal Military Police, stationed in Germany, that he found himself slowly being pulled in by the macabre.

It looks like everyone has really enjoyed my reading of H.P. Lovecraft’s The Picture In The House so much, that I actually found an old comic adaptation from1993 for you all to enjoy!

Get a glimpse into the life of the man who invented the greatest detective of all time!

I read a lot of blogs. A LOT of blogs. They are all neatly organized in my Google Reader, and consist of The Chive, various forms of LOLs (cat, dog, or human), and of course, writing blogs…

If you aren’t fully convinced that Paulo Coelho is the biggest badass in the publishing world after reading this, it’s because you haven’t read his books.

This is sad news that I feel like I’m going to start having to report on more and more.
