Hello folks,

I am trying to see if anyone has produced a detailed chronology of CAS's written work with a focus on when different stories, poems and essays were actually written. I can turn up reasonable information on when things saw publication, but obviously even during CAS' own lifetime a lot of time could elapse between something being written and something being in print.

If no unified chronology exists, are people at least aware of good sources for details of when Clark wrote what?

There is a list of when most of the fiction was written, included in The Freedom of Fantastic Things and Clark Ashton Smith: A Critical Guide to the Man and His Work.

Aha! That would be an excellent start - thank you.
