EC

Rode home with this monster from downtown on my bike, had to take it easy on the turns and hats off to Aboveground  Art Supplies for making such strong bags. I love these at original size  Artist Editions and this one has beautiful Krigstein and Craig art!!
 The Frazetta cover makes me sad as it reminds me of seeing the original at his museum which is no more but having this is the next best thing.





Morning

Perfect 77 record, the guitarist went on to do another great record with his band Empire, much better then anything by Idol after and my favorite King Khan side project.

Harvest Home


I've been re-reading HARVEST HOME and its a really great creepy book. This and Tryon's THE OTHER were both made into great films but even tho I love both the book is better. Tryon is really interesting to me as well as he's a former film actor in a favorite fities film (and others films) I MARRIED A MONSTER FROM OUTER SPACE. An old girlfriend who wasn't much into these films would always be happy to watch this one and I can't say I blame her, he was a good looking guy. Anyway I prefer this to a lot of stuff from that period for "mainstream" horror fiction, it sucks me in every time. I generally prefer horror short fiction and with the Poe idea its all about mood which can't really sustain itself over a longer period as easily. 


BIke ride

Biked out for a new sketchbook and found these two. Particularly happy about THE HANDS OF ORLAC.

Storm

Stunning lightning storm (no bolt pix) off the lake after the shower and beautiful clouds.
