Have you ever heard of Clark Ashton Smith? He was a contempory of Lovecraft's and an amazing strange fiction writer in his own rite.. He uses a much more colorful palette with his imagery than Lovecraft. 'City of the Singing Flame' is one of my favorite short stories of his. There's an online transcription of it here if you're interested : http://www.eldritchdark.com/wri/short/cityofthesingingflame .html Lots of snorky princes and multisnouted beasts. |

Ha ha, I remember tripping out when I was reading Lovecraft when I was really ill. I kept on thinking I was in that house in the story about that witch in the port town. It was nuts... I have a couple of lovecraft books on my wishlist at amazon, I'll wait till I've paid my rent then get a couple methinks (I've had no luck hunting them down in second hand stores). Have you played the roleplaying game based on the lovecraft books? Call of Cthulu or something... |

Call of Ktulu is a Metallica song. |

You'd be amazed how much lovecraft's writing has influenced "folklore". Even the games Quake (1) and nightmare creatures are heavily influenced by it. It's also apparent from one of his stories (about a dream quest) that he was able to dream lucidly, long before it was recorded in modern science. Apparentley his great volume of correspondence was his greatest achievement, I forget the figures, but there was a vast quantity of letters he wrote in his lifetime. |

I'm reading Beowulf and Eaters of the Dead right now, and I'm having a tough time... I barely ever read books, and I can't keep my mind on them, I need total silence. Beowulf is fucking impossible, sheesh. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Do you mean letters or creative writing? |
||||||||
|
|

hahah Beowulf......EVERYONE on the planet earth has to suffer thru that......tee hee *watches ophecks squirm* eaters of the dead sounds interesting......the film sucked tho! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i don't have to read beowulf anywhere :D but we have kalevala, our own national epic tale. probably a bit similar experience is to suffer through that. |
