I would really enjoy hearing your opinion on what makes a good anthology or, for that matter, a good anthologist. Are you familiar with Caitlin Kiernan's work and how do you as a Lovecraft scholar feel it compares? Also, in that vein, who do you recommend to bulk out my modern author collection? Can you speak to how you assign a voice to a character? For example, when you read as Lovecraft, what do you base his voice on? Do you know of any stories by Lovecraft, his contemporaries or his devotees set in or around Hawaii? If my fictional protagonist actively hunts down and kills nightgaunts, the mi-go, gugs and the like, how far from Lovecraft am I going? Am I writing more like Robert E. Howard? When will your annotated Lovecraft be available at Chaosium? Do you find that your obsession with Lovecraft mythology and Christian mythology are related? Do you believe that having such explicit use of cosmic horror in such a high profile game as Bloodborne will draw new fans to the genera and maybe even inspire other games to draw on these themes as a way to tell new stories?
