We’re here and still moving through our latest release, The Last Illusion: Limited Edition by Clive Barker. If you haven’t caught it yet, allow us to draw your attention to a good primer that the folks at The Clive Barker Podcast have prepared.

We’re sneaking in a project that’s been with us for a little while now. A few years ago we released an annotated edition of Clive Barker’s Cabal. Now we’re going back to that well with a new Barker book: A limited edition of the novella The Last Illusion.
Well it’s been a long time coming, but we’re now releasing our prized collaboration with filmmaker (and Session 9 actor [!!]) Larry Fessenden. It’s called Sudden Storm: A Wendigo Reader and it features work from many different writers and artists, all beguiled us into believing in the power of this Wendigo thing. Strangely, they’re probably succeeding.
We’ve teased things a bit over email and social media throughout the past several weeks, beginning with a subtle hint that turned out to be something wonderful:

Dreams you had, who you were and what you were supposed to be, that’s all gone, and now you’re existing in singular moments as space dust hitting light with the oddest, most unlikely chances to begin again. This work, what you’ve created so far, is the millstone around your neck and you must carry it from here on out. Until you vacate where you are, that absent space. Until you give yourself the smallest and most insignificant achievement. Only then can you ask yourself if it was worth it, but you must answer no.

Well, we’re nearly ready to start the production process for Fiddleblack #19. We now receive more submissions weekly than ever but there’s been a bit of a tightening of acceptance standards. What we’ve seen for a little while now hasn’t quite felt right. Much of it, anyway.

A while back we tried to spell out our mission clearly. This statement is probably clearer though, as technically unrelated to our work as its intended meaning is. Musician Dominick Fernow articulates part of his own work’s objective. But he’s managed to indirectly lend a better level of definition to our “sense of place” mantra by better defining “atmosphere” in terms of art.

It’s a bit warmer here. Last we talked there was a lot of snow and then a storm, and now there’s water filling all of the cracks in the roads, and perhaps the spell has been lifted.

Surprise. You see something, a vision in the snow. You can hear it.
