Crypt of Cthulhu Index Page

Enjoy!

The following article was published in the Spring 1997 Lovecraft Letters

The Temple of Dagon » Atheism’s Mythographer by Jason Colavito

And I am calling in your aid right now in the case of old ‘Dolph! He’s too gordam [sic] fussy to make his work a paying proposition for me -- for his fiction is unspeakable, his paying ability meagre, and his demands for revision - after his first version - extensive.
