Arcane Arts: Dispatches from the Silver Key went out yesterday, covering heavy metal, sword-and-sorcery (including Karl Edward Wagner's Kane, a cool fanzine I'm a part of, and an academic panel on REH I'll be speaking on).
Remember to sign up if you haven't already. It's a free email and covers stuff I don't cover here.
It also included something I want to talk about in a bit more detail here: The heavy metal memoir.
The Silver Key went dormant from 2013-2019, not coincidentally the same time I went to work on Flame and Crimson.
The good news is: That's not going to happen with the latest WIP. It's fully written, reviewed by a couple close friends and my wife who all appear in it. I rewrote it until I couldn't look at it anyore.
But on Friday/Saturday it came back from a contracted line editor. And, I have some work to do.
I plan to have it done by July-early August. I need to have it done by then. I’m giving myself a little wiggle room, but not much. I’m hosting a heavy metal party with a live band in mid-Septemer, at which I’m handing out a few free copies of the book.
It must be done by then. And so the big, difficult, final push is on.
Posting here will be less frequent and less substantive.
