Just a reminder that Lovecraft’s 133rd birthday is coming up, on 20th August 2023. There’s thus time for Lovecraftians to begin crafting a ‘birthday gift’ of some sort.
2023 is the 50th anniversary of Lovecraft’s 1973 breakthrough into a mass market readership in America and Great Britain, which may be a hook that some want to hang their ‘gift’ on.
August 2023 will also mark 100 years since Lovecraft penned “The Rats in the Walls” (August-September 1923).
