Busy Amazon.com has a new button on the left hand side of my Amazon Author Page. (And all author pages, for that matter.) Click upon this rectangular box and you will be notified when my next book, The Dunwich Diversity Seminar is available for sale in the world largest bookstore. Can a party girl grad student learn the information necessary to save the world from Lovecraftian horrors? Those who click the Follow button will find out first just in time for Halloween 2015.
For a bit more on Amazon publishing, including additional info on the Follow button, read this brief article from Digital Book World. In making a Follow Button available, Amazon has:
". . . increased the control they have of the book marketplace and highlighted once again that part of the ground they take is ground the publishers simply cede to them. Any publishers that is not helping authors engage with their readers and actively create their own email lists to alert the interested to new books is put on notice now that they are quite late."
How helpful? I will learn more in the next few months.

Is your appreciation of the Lovecraft mythos what created Vorn the Unspeakable.
It's really odd that there are no movies or shows about the Old Ones, they just appear parodied or referenced in shows like South Park, The Real Ghostbusters, Scooby-Doo, Justice League or Freakazoid, but they are only guest villains, never main characters.
Vorn, did indeed come from the Lovecraft mythos.
They're easier to parody than to do seriously. Check out the 1970 attempt to make a film from Lovecraft's The Dunwich Horror. A sad film with Dean Stockwell and Sandra Dee.
