Martin's Collection

You could just move to the Seattle area and then I will be correct.

A visit is on the bucket list. About the best I can do for ya.

All good . I figured it was meant for someone else.

My error, I though I was replying to a post from Ron.

They appear to be really nice anthologies. The publisher is not too far from you either. They are based in Tacoma. Welcome to LVP Publications (lycanvalley.com)

I noticed that last night...pretty interesting. Sadie Hartman's Night Worms operation is down in Tacoma as well...seems to be a happenin' place for horror lately. I tried to find a email newsletter signup link to stay abreast of new releases, but didn't see one, just a blog. I'll try to keep it in mind to check that blog from time to time so I don't miss out again.

Tacoma is good enough for Almond Roca and Chihuli so why not. As long as you can avoid the aroma you should be good. The sharks at Point Defiance are fantastic as well! I started following them on Twitter but I have only seen HWA retweets so far. Very interested in seeing what they produce going forward.

I don't believe it has unless it was in one of the HC's. I haven't looked through them all to see.

Those anthos look great, glue aside...solid line-ups and great art. They completely escaped my radar, hadn’t heard anything about them...time to go do a little research.

[Brian861]

Yes I do! Have you seen Sea Dogs collected anywhere? Unable to find if they have done that.

They still had a few copies of Book one so I ordered it as well. They also stated that the book would include a set of phobia cards. I do not believe they mentioned that each card would be signed by the author of the related story. Really a nice addition:

I am very impressed with htese but would have been willing to pay more for sewn binding.

So, Kealan Patrick Burke mentioned this book a while back on Twitter. He did the cover art and has a story inside. I was very intrigued and ended up buying two books from this publisher. I really like the books but am concerned with the binding. They are glued and are rather thick books. I will have to be very careful when reading to ensure they do not come apart.

On a completely separate track. When re-working my den bookcase I dedicated a full case to Joe Hill. Since he does not have enough to fill it yet I filled the bottom shelves with other items. I know have multiple new Hill items and 20th Century Ghosts arriving this week. Time to re-work the case again.

[Martin]

Nice Joe Hill adds. He always does nice inscriptions or doodles.

Thanks and yes he does!

[Martin]

Nice Hill additions to your collection, Martin -- congrats!

Thanks!
