This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

"Awake in the Night."

I published Mr Wright's story, in the first collection of Night Land fiction 
I edited,  ETERNAL LOVE.   It was brilliant, I agree (by far the best thing 
in the book) but you probably read it in one or other of the Best Of The 
Year anthologies it was picked up for.

Mr Wright has written several other Night land stories.  I think the best of 
them all is "The Last Of All Suns," set aboard a nightmare-ridden starship 
in the last hours before the collapse and rebirth of the Universe (it is 
nontheless a Night Land story, set in that future).

All his Night Land fiction can be found online for free my website 
www.thenightland.co.uk.

Uh, not really.   Where is Hodgson's influence on Wolfe???

Lovecraft, yes, of course
