For over forty years Mark Sawyer has been a huge fan of H. P. Lovecraft, the Cthulhu Mythos, and all of the authors who’ve contributed to it.
Some of what Mark has said in this regard:
“To bring about “The Mythos Murders,” a really good film based on Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos, is a dream come true.”
“Lovecraft and what he brought about — I wonder if he ever understood how broad an impact his works would have. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, Clark Ashton Smith, and so many others — these guys were incredible.”
“I’d like to think I’ve read all of their works, but I keep looking.”
“Lord Dunsany, of course, stands as a beacon. In his literature, he was to Lovecraft, as Jonathan Winters was in comedy to John Belushi and Robin Williams.”
“The highly regarded author L. Sprague DeCamp wrote a major biography of Lovecraft (and one of Robert E. Howard). My brother Phillip became a close friend of DeCamp’s late in his life. Through their friendship, I met Sprague a few times right in the period he was researching these biographies. One thing Sprague said, ‘Just like with my book on the Scopes Monkey Trial, I got around to interview many who’d actually been there, or in this case, met Lovecraft or Robert E. Howard in person, just in time.’”
