WEIRDTONGUE
WEIRDTONGUE by DF Lewis (InkerMen Press 2010).
It seems to me that there are elements of SF and elements of Fantasy and elements of Horror and elements of ‘Literature’ that together create a sector of an overlap or venn diagram that may be described as the ‘Weird’?
My contention is that that is not the Weird for it is subsumed by indistinguishable elements of simply the more imaginative side of Literature as a huge bank of fiction…
But is something to be called Weird Weird the true Weird? Which we have not yet fully explored or even written.
Until Weirdtongue?
If it's nothing else, it's a fiction unilke any other.

Allo DF,
Three inquiries: 1) What happened to the Passport Levant Mark Valentine review? It seems to have been lost or removed. 2) Although, for reasons that somewhat escape me, you are discontinuing the Nemonymous anthologies — will you be continuing publishing with Megazanthus Press? I ask as you make for an interesting editor and as someone desperately needs to publish a collection of S.D. Tullis. 3) Have you ever read either of Steve Rasnic Tem’s published English-language collections? His approach seems to have some harmonies with your own and he seems to be one of the few modern masters that you have thus far neglected in your real-time reviews. Perhaps you could review his collaboration collection, _In Concert_, recently published by Centipede Press?
Hi, ES
(1) Ooops, sorry, and thanks for drawing this to my attention. I must have deleted it by accident. I’ve replaced it HERE
(2) I agree that S.D. Tullis greatly deserves a collection of his stories published. I have only ever published Nemonymous and I don’t intend to publish any more books having gone into retirement (unless it is Nemonymous Six retrocausally: please see HERE!).
(3) Yes, I love Steve Rasnic Tem’s short fiction and have so far reviewed two of his stories (one of them in NULL IMMORTALIS): HERE and HERE
