Not only for the Binscombe Tales, though those first perfectly with their occasional forays into weird Britain, but for his novels which are often more decidedly horrific.Dave Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14468228790874490693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141372262111342844.post-66165993410867409352020-08-04T10:28:33.082+01:002020-08-04T10:28:33.082+01:00I would certainly be keen to hear that if you do !...I would certainly be keen to hear that if you do !<br /><br />I'm also sure the "Good Friends of Jackson Elias" would love to have you on their podcast to talk about many topics - Lovecraft, Binscombe Tales, folk horror, Robin of Sherwood, Jewelspider - and the integrity of the word "eldritch" in the Dragon Warriors world as opposed to more superficial games...Give me deep forests rather than 'deep' dungeons every time !

(She'll never give up on Facebook.) It's a beautiful part of the country and I'm glad to have been your companion on that run. I did suggest to Jamie that we could do an occasional podcast, figuring that it needs to be a dialogue as you say, but no luck. I might see if Leo wants to do one about Mirabilis... it does seem like an especially good idea in these distancing times.Dave Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14468228790874490693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141372262111342844.post-69310367193702530542020-08-03T21:52:32.184+01:002020-08-03T21:52:32.184+01:00Hi Dave, this isn't directly on- topic for you...Hi Dave, this isn't directly on- topic for your post, but here seemed as good a place as any to write to you, now that you have escaped from the pre-apocalyptic (sic) wastelands of Facebook.<br /><br />I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your conversation with Ralph Lovegrove on his Fictoplasm podcast last week. I may have said this before, but I think you should put out your own podcast (call it "Fabled Island Discs" ?) as I think that many here would enjoy your spoken as well as written musings, particularly in the form of dialogue with like-minded, interesting minds. <br /><br />I had the added pleasure of listening to Fictoplasm whilst running along the Purbeck Hills close to the lost village of Tyneham; for me, the epitome of English countryside, a place whose coves and beaches surely saw ships that had sailed from Lyonnesse and felt the tread of their sailors shoes upon the shore. There is a magic in this landscape of connection with other places and other times, which will long outlast the mentality of breaking which gave us "Brexit."
