Welcome to "The World of Myth's" Halloween edition!
Be Well Come to the Big Halloween Issue of "The World of Myth." This
month we have a number of new contributors to go along with many of our
regular writers and artists, so let's Dig right in!
Our Featured Writer this month is Robert E. Howard and I will be
reviewing one of his books, as well. Aside from his many adventure
stories, Howard (who was a contemporary of such writers as H.P. Lovecraft
and Clark Ashton Smith) also wrote a number of horror stories. If you
have not yet done so, you should check out some of his many, many great
works.
In the Horror Section, new contributors, R.H. Stavis and Lincoln Crisler
offer up some tasty treats for your enjoyment, along with a short from
Kevin Adams, while Samuel Haynes shares the last part of his horror story
and Tyler Tichelaar brings us a ghost story from over a hundred years
ago.
We have included a new section this month--a 'Humor Section,' and to
start it off, Steve Bolin shares a trip to a favorite Speciality store
and Michael A. Sauve explains his love for...well, you'll see.
David K. Montoya adds another piece of "The End" to his collection and in
the Poetry Section, Kevin Magnus offers us a new piece, along with poems from
Jeff R. Young, Kevin Adams, Ellen Lynch and L.M. Mercer.
In the Art Gallery, Michael A. Sauve, Jessica Rinaldo and Allen J.
Speakman return with more art and a new friend, Jonathan Fesmire shares
some of his art work with us.
The Movie Reviews are full this month, with Balcony Betty, Movieman Russo
and Reaper Rick all stopping by with reviews and opinions about movies
you may want to view--or not.
There are also two great interviews this month--both with new
contributors to the site. R.H. Stavis talks about her writing--both in
novels and comics--and Jonathan Fesmire shares insight into both his
writing and art work. Don't miss these interviews!
Stop by the Month in Myth to find out more about Halloween and its
meaning.
The Member of the Month for last issue was Adam Janus--congratulations on
a second win in just a few months. Adam was also a very close second in
the voting for the Member of the Year Award. The voting this year was
extremely close all the way around, and we would like to thank everyone
who took the time to vote. Almost 2,000 votes were actually cast and the
voting was so close, no one received more than 13% of the vote. In fact,
there were only a handful of votes separating the first five contributors
who received the most votes. So, congratulations to everyone who
participated and thank you one and all for your many, great contributions
to "The World of Myth." I also wish to thank the many readers who in
fact voted 'me' Member of the Year and I am honored to be in the company
of so many wonderfully talented artists and writers. Thank you, again,
one and all for your continued support.
