Folio to do Lovecraft?

[muninnhuginn]

Cthulhu in gorgeous illustrated hardback, what a thought. Yum.

The Folio Society sent me its questionnaire and asked which of the proposed works in their list I'd probably buy, might buy or wouldn't buy. There wasn't a box for: I'll pay double if you do that one. Yes, they're considering a volume of Lovecraft.

Now all I need to do is corner any Folio Society members I know, in case they got the questionnaire too, and say "Pretty please, vote for Cthulhu" a lot.

When did you get the questionnaire? I haven't had it, but I haven't seen the post this morning.

Oh, this morning, early enough to complete the entire questionnaire (every time I type this word I, very disturbingly, hear it prissily pronouced by Arthur Marshall from Call My Bluff when Robert Robinson hosted it)in the time it takes a six-year old to put on its socks. We were efficient and posted it on the way to school too.

I don't think the questionnaire necessarily goes out to all members--just the most discerning? or the most recalcitrant?

There's some other nice things in the list too.

Oooh! Well, I hope I'll have had it. If I have, I promise to vote for Lovecraft. If I haven't, I'll be back to pester you for what else is in the offing! :-)

Btw, my membership books arrived a few weeks ago, including the very gorgeous 'Lifted Veil'.

Cthulhu for PM (and Folio edition!)!

Why vote for the lesser evil?

Cthulhu as a candidate would settle it for me ;-)

Coincidentally, I also found Cthulhu fragrances today: from Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab comes Springtime in Arkham.

Cool!

Now purpletigron doesn't use perfumes much at all, and I'm not too sure about purplejavatroll. But maybe they'll be inspired with the Cthulhoid emanations...

Hah! Interesting.

You didn't think about them for yourself. The interesting thing about the BPAL frangrances is they list whether they think they're masculine, feminine or gender neutral.

Or perhaps it's my assumption that one buys fragrances for oneself rather than as gifts for anyone else that's odd: M doesn't do smelly stuff and absolutely no-one would dare buy scent for me.

I can't seem to find any M or F indicators for the Arkham collection. Maybe they should be O for Old One....

But then I don't really do smelly stuff either - at least never have in the past, and i wouldn't want to shock anyone now!
