There are some more amazing scans of old small press mags from the Nineties here (mainly my own contributory copies):
http://filthycreations.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=magazines&action=display&thread=13 (12 pages)

I've also today put a link at the bottom of the page here:
http://weirdmonger.blog-city.com/wyrd_press_1993.htm
to Camille-Gabrielle's illustrations. She was co-publisher in the Nineties of Masque and Ocular magazines
-- and I believe her illustrations are possibly second to none.

And below I link respectively to the striking illustrations of t. Winter-Damon and Kerry Earl:

There's something deliciously old-fashioned or netraditional about these author threads. Reminds me of when I first had the Net in 1999 and stumbled on 'Masters of Terror'.

A free competition to win one of the last remaining copies of the now out-of-print 'Weirdmonger' (Prime Books 2003) - on the BFS Forum 'Nemonymous' board:
http://www.britishfantasysociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=2338.msg14914#msg14914

The competition is on the 'Nemonymous' board because it is about 'Nemonymous' but you do not need to have read 'Nemonymous' to enter.
One entrant so far. Four to go.

Just written a short sonata of reality and fantasy upon 'real-time reviewing' as it relates to my future book entitled 'The Last Balcony':

Very excited about the prospect. And I believe there will be a PDF extract on the Ex Occidente site very shortly.

In common with others on this BFS Board, I have carried out a real-time review of this author's work.

No axe to grind but I'm in a dictionary with Shakespeare, Jack Vance, John Keats, James Joyce, Clark Ashton Smith...

I am pleased to report that, very soon, a pdf preview of the forthcoming DFL definitive fiction collection - 'The Last Balcony' - will be put up at the Ex Occidente Press site here: http://www.exoccidente.com/index.html

 I am also kindly allowed by Unsettled Dust to use this wonderful photo (from here) in electronic connection with this book:

Stunning photo! Is it to be the cover of your collection?

Stunning photo! Is it to be the cover of your collection?

No, not as far as I know. This is a photograph by someone separate from me and from the publisher who was inspired by the title.

In recent months, I have been receiving many requests to real-time review specific books.

 Although I really enjoy this process of real-time reviewing, my response to such requests has to be along the following lines:

 

Thanks for asking.
I can only real-time review books I've bought (or, in rare cases, exchanged for my own books as payment). And I can't promise to do a review on any of them even if I've bought them.
I'll consider buying your book.  Good luck with it.

Last night I finished my real time review of 'Back From The Dead'. It starts here:

Locks, metal-embeddings in the ground, Death as an Island or Character - book's general leitmotifs?
LOST - its gestalt?
