In 2009, editor Christopher Conlon compiled a creatively ambitious anthology: He is Legend, published by Gauntlet Press, featured sixteen stories either based upon or inspired by the fiction of horror legend Richard Matheson. The credits are impressive to anyone with a passing knowledge of horror fiction luminaries – Nancy Collins, Ed Gorman, William Nolan, and more – but the major draw was the first published collaboration between Stephen King and his son, bestselling writer Joe Hill. Their story, "Throttle," takes its inspiration from Matheson's powerful novella, Duel, and like Duel, it's a story involving a conflict between big and little vehicles … but that's where the stories...

Williamson's "principal critical standard for any work included in Masques [was]: 'Scare me!'" Masques never disappointed. As the series progressed, the contents pages read like a guest list at the Stoker Awards: Robert B. McCammon, Richard Matheson, Richard Christian Matheson, Gahan Wilson, William Nolan, Ramsey Campbell, Thomas F. Monteleone, Dan Simmons, Ray Bradbury, and Stephen King (among many others) all contributed original short works.

Love hurt - and caused a trip to the emergency room for Martha Stewart this week - all because she wanted a little kiss with her dogs. Tuesday night, Stewart arrived at her Westchester, N.Y., home after trips to Cartagena, Colombia and Florida, but she had to leave again for New York City for work. Despite being rushed, Stewart wanted to spend a moment with her French bulldogs, Francesca and Sharkey. "As I leaned down to whisper goodbye to a dozing Francesca, I must have startled her, because she bolted upright with such force that she hit me in...

U.S. lifestyle queen Martha Stewart is recovering after clashing with one of her dogs. The TV personality needed nine stitches to close up a wound on her upper lip after accidentally headbutting her French bulldog, Francesca. Stewart was leaving her home on Tuesday, January 11 when the accident happened and her driver took her to a nearby hospital, where she was treated by plastic surgeon Dr. William Nolan.
Blogging about the incident, she writes, "I must have startled her, because she bolted upright with such force that she hit me in the face like a boxing glove hitting an opponent's face. I was entirely startled and my neck snapped back. I felt a bit of whiplash as blood gushed forth from my split lip."
Stewart asked her assistant to take photos of the split lip as she waited for treatment, and she has posted the snaps online. The TV star...

Martha Stewart is blogging about the close encounter with her canine that resulted in a trip to the emergency room Tuesday night. Martha said it all began when she leaned over to bid her dozing dog Francesca goodbye. "I must have startled her, because she bolted upright with such force that she hit me in the face like a boxing glove hitting an opponent's face," the homemaking icon said. "I was entirely startled and my neck snapped back. I felt a bit of whiplash as blood gushed forth from my split lip. Frannie was as upset as I was and cowered in her bed." Martha said she suffered "a pretty serious gash" and was taken to Northern Westchester Hospital's emergency room in Mt. Kisco, New York, where the on-call plastic surgeon, Dr. William Nolan, stitched up her busted lip -- pictures of which she posted on her blog. And of course,...

Once again, the Mystery & Imagination Bookshop in Glendale, CA, was the place to be for genre gold, this time for the launch party and signing for the new horror anthology, The Bleeding Edge. Published by Cycatrix Press, this collection of 19 tales by modern masters of the macabre, edited by Jason V Brock and William F. Nolan, received a lavish send-off by a host of its contributors. The book itself is a handsomely mounted volume, printed in a limited edition of 400 and an extremely limited deluxe signed edition of 75.
As usual, hosts and proprietors Malcolm and Christine Bell managed the moiling mobs of fans with courtesy and aplomb, showing how one should run the last standing brick-and-mortar genre bookstore in America’s second-largest city.
Jason Brock took a moment from the busy event to speak with FM.

I have a love-hate relationship with novels. Though I love reading, often times I feel novels can be long winded and monotonous in some parts. At the same time, movies adapted from novels oftentimes omit a lot and or tweak the story so much that you walk out of the theatre wondering how the heck the film-makers came up with such rubbish when the source material was so good. As for comic-book adaptations they offer a whole different problem all together. Usually limited to a four, five or six issue run, how does one cram a novels worth of story into the limited space provided by a comic book? That was the question I had when reading the first issue of Bluewater Comic’s adaptation of the sci-fi classic Logan’s Run by William F. Nolan and George Clayton Johnson.
