Lovecraft eZine Podcast Installment of THE SKELETON MELODIES

Major props to Mike Davis and his team for a fun and engaging conversation at the Lovecraft eZine Podcast. You can catch the episode here. Despite a minor (and temporary) connectivity glitch on my end, we were able to discuss a number elements which comprise The Skeleton Melodies, as well as some of the formative drivers of my fiction. Among the mentions: the influential novel Summer of Night, the effect of creature-feature host, Sammy Terry, and little name-dropping (among others) on my colleagues Adam Golaski and C.M. Muller.

Ginger Nuts of Horror Review of THE SKELETON MELODIES

Ginger Nuts of Horror contributor Daisy Lyle provides a thorough assessment of The Skeleton Melodies. Clearly, Daisy has invested a lot of time analyzing this collection of stories, and I’m supremely grateful for this thoughtful examination.

The overall impression left by [The] Skeleton Melodies is of an author who is definitely going places. Some of his prose could do with a bit of pruning, but it’s a polished collection covering a wide variety of fears ancient and modern, and I will be watching Smith’s development as a writer with interest.” Daisy Lyle
