Closed today & tomorrow. Back on Saturday! Here's a bit of what I've been working on...
The "Dangerous Visions" series, created and edited by the late Harlan Ellison, is highly acclaimed in speculative fiction circles and includes short stories by some of the greatest names in fantasy & sci-fi history. The first was published in 1971, "Again..." in 1972, and a third, titled "Last Dangerous Visions" was planned for 1973, but remains unpublished to date, 50 years later.
Not to brag, but I buy myself the *best* Christmas gifts. This is #1327, with so many signatures by some of my favorite authors and artists, and in a gorgeous slipcase/tray! I'll be spending a good chunk of today with this gorgeous tome, and I hope your day is filled with at least as much joy as this book will be bringing me, friends! #dirkmanning #treatyourself #thecrow #jamesobarr #harlanellison #caitlinrkiernan #danbrereton #bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CmmdDvpvavs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Grave Predictions was my seventh read of 2023.
I picked up Grave Predictions because it contained Harlan Ellison’s “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream.” I’d always wanted to check out this short story but could never find it anywhere—and I didn’t want to pirate it. Then, after a chat with friends about disturbing ideas—such as Roko’s basilisk—Ellison came up. Thus, I decided I needed to read it…
