Near the end of summer, I am going to be a guest speaker at
the Pagan Pride Convention in Detroit, Michigan, August 13, 2016, where I will
also hold a book signing event.
For the Pagan Pride Convention, I will be examining H. P.
Lovecraft's connection with the Wiccan religion. In Chapter 7 of my book, I explore this connection, but due to space
constraints, I was unable to give it fuller treatment. My speech will
remedy this situation.
My presentation is entitled: "H. P. Lovecraft's Goddess
Shub-Niggurath: Redefining the Horned God Archetype of the Wiccans."
I have also been invited to be a guest speaker for two
consecutive days at the well-known Carnival of Para-Horror Convention in
Buffalo, New York on August 27 & 28, 2016; I will be signing books at this
event as well.
My two -part presentation at the Carnival of Para-Horror is
entitled " H. P. Lovecraft's Cosmic Weird Tales & the American
Cinema."
When we get closer to summer, I will post on this blog (and
on Facebook & Twitter) more specific information- dates, times, locations,
etc.- about the Pagan Pride Day & the Carnival of Para-Horror speaking
engagements.
And finally, in early autumn, I will be holding another book
signing event at the Georgia Tech Barnes & Noble college bookstore in
Atlanta, Georgia on September 24, 2016 from 12:00 PM- 6:00 PM.
The Georgia Tech campus boasts a large Lovecraft following,
so I am looking forward to this autumnal event; I hope to meet a wide variety
of fans of horror & science fiction and hopefully, some of my dark friends
and colleagues in the south who know me on Facebook & Twitter will stop by
to pick up a copy of my book & say hello.
