| Another Year Begins I hope everyone had a Happy and Safe New Year’s. It’s been a busy one so far for me – tons of work. I’m getting started on TGR #11, which will be out in time for Howard Days. It should be a really nice issue if all comes together as planned. Hopefully there will be a decent turn in Cross Plains out this year as well. A New REH Bio-Bibliography I just got my copy of Leon Nielson’s bio-bibliography from McFarland. It is an excellent volume, a true labor of love on Leon’s part, the bulk of it done while he was in a life-and-death battle with cancer. He’s doing better now, but darn nearly succumbed to it some months back. I know some folks have questioned its value, but I enjoyed reading it and contributing to it. I’m of the opinion there can never be too much out there about Howard. Granted, no one wants a lot of poor quality stuff floating around, but this volume is very well written and organized, with a lot of useful information. You can order it from Amazon.com. Of course, lots of other good stuff is in the works as well: the Rhyme of Salem Town poetry book, the collected letters, all the unpublished stuff, Schweitzer's book of Howard essays, hopefully at least two issues of The Dark Man, etc. It’s great that all this stuff is coming out, the sheer volume of it ensures some new folks are going to come across some of it and go looking for the rest of it. Free Dark Man Poster! For those of you who attended the World Fantasy Con, I'm pretty sure I gave everyone a poster I had printed up of the cover art for TGR #10. If anyone else out there wants one, mail or PayPal me $4.00 to cover postage and the price of a mailing tube and I’ll send you one. The Cimmerian Returns Leo Grin is back on track with the release this month of the last two issues in volume 3 of The Cimmerian.
