Subterranean Press is publishing a Blaylock/Powers collaboration entitled
The Devils in the Details
Clarkesworld Books is offering a special deal on The Man in the Moon.
See here
for details.
W. Chris Smith wrote to let us know that Cafeshops.com sells shirts and
mugs featuring the Babbage Press covers for Digging
Leviathan and Homunculus.
Added some more links to places on-line where Blaylock books can be found.
Also, a rather bemusing cover--image for the French edition of The
Disappearing Dwarf.
Thirteen Phantasms, a short story collection
from Edgewood Press, is available (see links here to
bookstores and to the publisher's Thirteen Phantasms website). A cover images
is posted online at our Thirteen Phantasms page.
A new short story The
Other Side, has been published online at scifi.com
Subterranean Press has published
a Blaylock chapbook called Home Before Dark (which I believe is already
sold out), as well as a William Ashbless short story and poem published together
as On Pirates (William Ashbless is a nom de plume of Blaylock and Tim
Powers - available January 2001).
Anyone interested in the Blaylock/Powers character William Ashbless might
like to see one of the rare
chapbooks published by the elusive poet...there's also part of an interview
with Tim Powers at this
site that describes the origin of Ashbless, and mentions the intriguing
"William Ashbless Memorial Cookbook", which I hope someday goes into print.
(and in fact, it has! See here...)
Cheese hat enthusiasts take note: in the aeroport scene in the movie "Dogma",
someone is selling hats shaped like wedges of cheese.
This isn't strictly Blaylock-related, but it might amuse some Blaylock readers
(especially those who like the Elfin Ship or the Last Coin)
to know that the US Patent Office
last year issued patent number 5,708,983 for an invention described as an
"Inflatable Cheese Wedge Hat". It's comforting to know that the real world
is sometimes like a Blaylock novel.
An interview/chat
with Blaylock is available on the OMNI website, even though OMNI magazine
is defunct now.
The chat with Blaylock on Event Horizon has been archived here.
There are still copies of the Triquarterly Journal, Northwestern University,
#47, Winter, 1980, in which is published one of Blaylock's early short stories,
"The Pink of Fading Neon"? Apparently the price is US$5.00:
