There's no guard to kiss or kill—Death's frontiers are free
Today I am part of a podcast. Please enjoy the latest episode of The Outer Dark, "The State of the Weird 2018, A Roundtable Discussion featuring David Davis, Helen Marshall, Stephen Graham Jones, and Sonya Taaffe."
It was complicated. Originally I was supposed to be part of the roundtable proper, but there was technical snafu and my long-distance participation did not work out. That was upsetting. Fortunately, Scott Nicolay, host of The Outer Dark and moderator of the roundtable, was sufficiently upset to reach out to me about a kind of addendum conversation which we managed this week despite the technical issues escalating to fubar, which is why I still get to be on this incredibly cool poster designed by Yves Tourigny. I appear to be cheerfully grave-robbing the last expedition foolhardy enough to set off this way into the Weird. I am delighted. Anyway, have a listen! It was a lot of fun. I say things about poetry. Other people say things about other forms of the weird as a mode or mood or genre. I wish I'd had the time to talk more about opera, because it's not just Offenbach and Menotti and Peter Maxwell Davies. The world is always changing shape.

It is definitely all of us. I don't know David Davis or Helen Marshall by sight, but I was on programming with Stephen Graham Jones at NecronomiCon and he looks very like himself here. I love both the conceit and the design.
