Hey, has anyone been keeping score here? This guy's probably covered everything dealing with lost films and Ian Thorne-esque books that can be covered! I mean, 11 books on both subjects conbined already! What's next?

As I understand it, he was in a situation where he could quit his job and focus on writing. I don't think he's married (yet) and probably doesn't have children, so far as I can see on FB. So it is his full-time job now, unlike the rest of us writers who have to balance it with work and other responsibilities.Legion1979 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 14, 2021 4:22 pmSome people I know work years to get ONE book published.

I just got G-FAN #136 (summer 2022) and found this very interesting little tidbit on p. 62: a new Rex Summeral story by Skip Peel with a very interesting origin.
I quote the opening statement by John LeMay himself:
"The follwing story first appeared in The Big Book of Japanese Giant Monster Movies The Lost Films G-FEST Exclusive Edition. This was originally intended as a 2020 convention exclusive limited edition with extra material that would raise money for G-Fans Helping G-Fans. But we all know what happened in 2020. Will the 'lost edition' of The Lost Films ever surface? Time will tell,..."
