Adventures of Capt Robert Folkestone and Sgt. Felix Hand is available in print. A complication in writing the story, but it had nothing to do with the characters or the plot. No, it had to do with Star Trek. Professor Lewis Swift- Astronomer and Searcher for Vulcan. Vulcan, the other. Vulcan. What Vulcan would that be, you ask? You can't find it?

Random Thoughts, Random Books, Random Minds. Wednesday, August 20, 2014. The Afterlife of HP Lovecraft. 20 August 1890 - 15 March 1937). But when Lovecraft died of cancer in 1937, was that really the end for him? Perhaps personally, if his beliefs were correct, but not for his name, his stories, or his ideas. It may not be reincarnation in the tradition of our Hindu brethren, but HP Lovecraft continues to touch minds and change lives 115 years after his birth. Question: "Have you ever read HP Lovecraft?

http://bookscribbles.blogspot.com/2012/06/art-nouveau-books-of-henry-van-dyke.html
Random Thoughts, Random Books, Random Minds. Thursday, June 14, 2012. The Art Nouveau Books of Henry van Dyke. I have a fondness for Art Deco design, the angular streamlining so familiar to fans of the Poirot. British television series set between the Great War and the Not-so-Great War, but I have a weakness. It was my weakness for Art Nouveau that first drew me to writings of Henry van Dyke (1852-1933), specifically a copy of Companionable Books (1922). By companionable books I mean those that are worth...

Sherlock Holmes, The Dreaming Detective" was the second Sherlock Holmes/HP Lovecraft book published by Gary Lovisi at Gryphon Books in Brooklyn, N.Y., though it was the first book specifically submitted to him.
