This outstanding anthology of original stories - from both established award-winning authors and exciting new voices - collects tales of cosmic horror inspired by Lovecraft from authors who do not merely imitate, but reimagine, re-energize, and renew the best of his concepts in ways relevant to today's readers, to create fresh new fiction that explores our modern fears and nightmares.įrom the depths of R'lyeh to the heights of the Mountains of Madness, some of today's best weird fiction writers traverse terrain created by Lovecraft and create new eldritch geographies to explore.

I am using the lovely idea for extra tentacles on the palm to make a new palm chart. Thank you Diane for such a useful pattern. ![]() You may apply this chart if you wish to the free pattern by Diane Mulholland called Mittens to Order. ![]() The pattern I am using is the cat mittens pattern for sale by Jorid Linvik.
