The Unspeakable to Become Unprintable

In the fall of 2001, my story collection _The Unspeakable and Others_
(http://tinyurl.com/3akhhr ) was published -- surely the most terrifying
event to occur in that period.

It soon garnered a cult following, complete with black robes and strange
rites performed under the full moon to the resounding echo of guttural
voices echoing from the air.

However, effective 15 February 2008, _The Unspeakable and Others_ is
going to go out of print. So, if you've been trembling in horror at the
prospect of obtaining a copy of this forbidden tome, you had better act
now or you may never know whether your fear was justified.

(_The Unspeakable and Others_ contains about 100,000 words worth of
fiction in the weird fantasy tradition of H.P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton
Smith, and Lautréamont. The Introduction is by Lovecraft-scholar S.T.
Joshi.)

I keep meaning to review this delicious book at Amazon but have been too preoccupy'd with ye writing of my own deprav'd tomes to give ye Booke ye requir'd New Reading so that I can speak of it precisely. I did chuckle at the one Amazon review, quote:

"It is reputed that the author suffers from chronic pain. It is not clear whether that pain is the cause of a consequence of his writing style. My guess: the former."

If such pain can produce such delicious decadence, pray bequeath me thy disease.

"I'm a little girl."
