YOG-SOTHOTH/DARK FICTION #4 UPDATE:


Visitors of Bizarrechats are aware that Eighth Tower Publishing's Dark Fiction, Vol 4 will cater the H.P. Lovecraft's revered and feared Outer God, Yog-Sothoth.


Per publisher/curator Raffaelle Pezzella, the latest edition is now in the editing stages and holds a projected, July launch. 


My story for Dark Fiction #4 is entitled, "Yog-Sothoth, Beyond the Border". It tells of the deity's descent upon misty Earth and from there, his burgeoning visibility. Yog-Sothoth is an invisible entity by tradition, though his shape has been realized by many artists and storytellers over the years. I've presumed that even The Crawling Eye/The Trollenberg Terror was derived from the Outer God's reputed semblance. 


It's inspiring that Pezzella will have published four volumes in his series as of this summer, all within a tad more than a year. It just goes to show what a true visionary (and a little determination) can conjure. 


Revisit Bizarrechats for additional updates on this Dark Fiction edition, but in the meantime, The Great Old Ones' audio prelude to Yog-Sothoth's literary salute is available from Eighth Tower Records: a potent means to get into the Lovecraftian mood:
