Next week, I am going to be a guest on the Dr. J Radio Live Show with Dr. J Andy Ilias on Thursday night, April 14, 2016 from 7 PM to 8 PM CT/10 PM-11 PM EST.

The Dr. J Radio Live Show airs on YouTube at www.youtube.com/c/DrJRadioLive/ & on SKYPE at

In addition, I am going to be a guest on the Where Did The Road Go? Radio show on Saturday night, April 16, 2016 from 11 PM EST to 12 Midnight.

Where Did The Road Go? airs live every Saturday night on WVBR 93.5 FM in Ithaca, New York near Cornell University.  The show explores such topics as the paranormal, alternate science, lost history, the supernatural & the occult and takes a skeptical (but not necessarily “debunking”) attitude towards the hidden forces that affect our lives and our world.

The host is Seriah Azkath, who has been on the air for the last 20 years.  Mr. Azkath also hosts The Last Exit of the Lost, a Heavy-Metal based radio show.  I will, naturally, discuss my new book and other related topics.

For the latter event, I’ll be giving a two-part presentation: “H. P. Lovecraft’s Cosmic Weird Tales & the American Cinema.”  I will start out by examining Lovecraft’s aesthetic and his theory & practice for the writing of weird tales. Then, I’ll take a look at certain key American film adaptations of Lovecraft’s work and determine how well (or not) filmmakers are able to capture Lovecraft’s masterful literary constructs on the silver screen.

Finally, in autumn, I have a book signing at the Georgia Tech Barnes & Noble college bookstore in Atlanta Georgia on September 24, 2016; the store claims a large Lovecraft following at the university and so, I hope to see some of you at the signing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9KoulnuLo8

The Night Fright Show is the #1 Canadian based radio show of its genre.

I recently wrote a short, non-fictional speculative piece for the well-known and influential publication The R’lyeh Tribune, “H. P. Lovecraft’s Yog-Sothoth: Christian Parody or Looking-Glass God?” dated December 16, 2015, which the editor, Sean Eaton, refers to as “a Yuletide reflection on The Dunwich Horror.”  Anyone who wishes to read this essay can access it via the following link.

In addition, I wrote a guest post entry for the Red Wheel/Weiser Blog dated February 4, 2016.  This posting is entitled “The Black & White Magickal Dichotomy” and it clarifies the difference between black and white magick. Please read this at the following link.

Finally, I have an upcoming radio interview with The Fringe Radio Network. This will take place on Saturday, February 13, 2016 from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM EST.

http://www.fringeradioshow.com/

The Fringe Radio network explores a far-ranging array of ‘fringe paranormal’ genres, such as ghost hunting, UFOs, Bigfoot, and psychics. There is no demarcation to the topics that the show will cross or challenges that they won’t take on.  The show cleverly bridges the science fiction with today’s reality through anecdotes, historical research, and insight from well informed and esteemed guests. 

I hope that you will check it out!  You’ll get some insight into Lovecraft’s mind and his fictional concepts and why Lovecraft continues to remain relevant in the twenty-first century.
