Speaking of Robert E. Howard . . .

It appears that a new Conan movie deal is in the works. Whether or not anything actually comes of it, well, we'll have to wait and see. But I especially like the last line in the story: "The new version will be more faithful to Howard's original creation than were the Schwarzenegger films."

Robert E. Howard Article

There's an interesting article about Robert E. Howard -- and Mark Finn's recent REH bio, BLOOD AND THUNDER, to be found here. The author is Michael H. Price, an old acquaintance of mine who did an interview with me in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram when TEXAS WIND came out -- the first time! That's how far we go back. Good stuff about Howard, so check it out.
