Blue and Black

[klward]

Slightly delayed for technical reasons, Black #3 is out in Australian newsagents now. It contains my feature article, "Coffin Culture", as well as my somewhat truncated report on this year's Under the Blue Moon gothic festival. I have negotiated with the Editor to post the full report to this journal once the current issue is off the shelves.

There is also a large and detailed article on the Lothian Dark Suspense line-that-was-to-be, of which Prismatic was one of the only four actually released. This was unexpected: Shane hit me for quotes but I thought this was just going to be in his regular column. It is a fine piece: the whole affair seems quite enthralling from this distance.

Add to this Gary Kemble's sensitive exploration of the practice of Satanism (give or take a photo caption or two), the Alice Cooper interview, and of course ashamel 's column, and you are in for an interesting read if I dare say so myself!

I shall buy it just for your article. Or maybe I'll get Iain to buy it.
Did I ever tell you that I got a copy of your article on gargoyles? It was wonderful. Next time you're over our way, I'll take you over to ST John's in Ashfield and show you the gargoyles there.

Glad you liked the gargoyle article! St Johns at Ashfield is a Blacket church and the gargoyles bear considerable resemblance to those of Christchurch St Lawrence on Broadway in the CBD.

Have you seen the ones on the Church of England in Shepparton? They are fanged sheep.

Here's a house you might be interested in, but it is in country Victoria
