]]>I tried out some "special effects" near the end--hopefully they sound fitting, and not lame and out of place.
]]>This year, I thought I'd do one better. For a variety of reasons, I love his story "The Colour out of Space". Perhaps no other story of his is so tied to the landscape of western New England, where I currently reside, but not for long. Thus, in the spirit of celebrating Halloween, commemorating the place I love so much, and relishing the reading outloud of elaborate prose, I've decided to do a series of podcasts where I read the story. This is part one, probably of three--expect the rest in the next few weeks, as Halloween approaches.
It's a great story, and I hope I do it justice.
