TENTACLII<\/strong> is a weblog on the literary works and life of H.P. Lovecraft, with an emphasis on the scholarly work on Lovecraft and his circle. With occasional forays into book reviews, notable audio, documentaries, visual art and similar. But avoiding the tidal-waves of “Lovecraft inspired” dross, except for the sake of an occasional chuckle here and there. <\/p>\n

Also available here is my comprehensive and unique directory of ‘Lovecraft on the Web’: 300 links collected and organised by me in July\/August 2010, and occasionally checked for dead or moved links. Plus my ‘Open Lovecraft’ page, linking to free academic papers and erudite scholarly musings that are known to be available online.<\/p>\n

Publishers please note: I’m only really interested in Lovecraft himself. Please don’t try to foist books on\/by other writers on me, in the hope of a review. Readers should note that I occasionally add an Amazon Associate link to a book at Amazon, and that I can earn from qualifying purchases.<\/p>\n

Donations are welcome, and these help me to buy books of Lovecraftian scholarship and the volumes of Lovecraft’s letters. You can become my regular patron on Patreon<\/a> or make a one-time donation through PayPal…<\/p>\n

Donate via PayPal<\/a><\/strong> — any amount is welcome!<\/strong><\/p>\n
