Mid-December Update

Happy Solstice, everyone! I’ve been keeping silent but working hard on the ongoing Dream-Quest project. The book is at the printers, and I’ve been spending most of the last few weeks working on the new 24″x36″ version of the map of the dreamlands. The image is a detail from a portion of the map.

I also recently read Mark Amory’s biography of Lord Dunsany, and I’ve been working on the final touches for “The Club of the Seven Dreamers,” the RPG adventure. Basically, I’m rushing around trying to finish everything, but all’s going well! And lo and behold, if you weren’t a Kickstarter backer but you buy your comics at a local comic store, the Dream-Quest graphic novel is available in the upcoming January 2012 issue of Previews for release in late March! So one way or the other, Dream-Quest will be coming out next year, all thanks to the awesomeness of the many people who supported it on Kickstarter. I’ll have more news to post after the 26th!

Randolph Carter Dream Dolls!

by on October 24, 2011 at 9:28 am

After weeks of behind-the-scenes work, I’m able to announce a fabulous new Lovecraftian (Kadathian?) toy… Randolph Carter (Dream-Form) Dolls!

These huggable soft dream dolls are based on Randolph Carter’s form within the Dreamlands as seen in my comic adaptation of Dream-Quest. Hand-crocheted and designed by French-Lebanese artist Katia Farage, each doll comes with a nightgown and sleeping cap sewn by my wife, Jumana Al Hashal.


There are only five handmade dolls, available to backers of the new “Cosmic Entity of the Freedom of Dreamless Sleep” level on Kickstarter. Put them on your pillow to guard your dreams! Take them to tea parties! Enjoy some Lord Dunsany together! Photoshop them into pictures illustrating scenes from “Dream-Quest”! The possibilities are endless!



Yes, this is a real thing! Thanks to my friend Katia and my wife Jay for their help and long hours of crocheting!
