Spent most of the night and morning reading Lovecraft and learning the lyrics for two of the new albums I got for Christmas.
EDIT: Lovecraft is bloody awesome and any and every person who has not read any of his work should seriously reconsider his or her entire way of life.
My favorites:
The Colour Out of Space
Cool Air
The Dunwich Horror
The Music of Erich Zann - is somewhat interesting. Though, don't expect too much.
The Rats in the Walls - May be creepy to some people. I liked it because it's simple.
The Shadow Over Innsmouth
The Thing on the Doorstep - the one that has actually scared me enough to
drop the pages in fear!!!
There are some of the (I think) late ones that you shouldn't read until you have read alot of the earlier Lovecraft, such as At the Mountains of Madness, and the Call of Cthulhu. I think there are more that should come with warnings, but these are the ones I've read.
Because they deal heavilly with mythos stuff.
The Alchemist, the Beast in the Cave, and the Shunned House are the most corny I've read. I do not recommend these three.
Spent the day reading articles about writing horror, articles about tabletop RPG storytelling, and game reviews. My head suffers from inspirational poverty currently, and I'm trying to get in a creative mood to prepare an impossibly good tabletop horror campaign. It's hard and seems to go nowhere.
