Julian Hawthorne's "Strange Recollections" Kickstarter

Back it Here!

Cirsova is once again back with a new crowdfund: this time for more of Julian Hawthorne's nearly lost works. You can check this one out for yourself here.

This one funded in record time, but the more it makes the more old fiction can be preserved. Because that is what this is really about.

In case you forgot:

"Cirsova Publishing's effort to rescue Julian Hawthorne's planetary romance The Cosmic Courtship from its 'near-lost' status was met with a tremendous response. We established a new and ongoing Cirsova Classics imprint devoted to finding 'near-lost' pulp fiction in the public domain and publishing them in modern format as part of a Stretch Goal that was met.

"We only thought it fitting that, before moving on to other works by other authors, we should complete a set of Julian Hawthorne's All-Story Weekly-era fiction in a standard set."

Yes, this campaign is to preserve the rest of Julian Hawthorne's small body of fiction. Julian was purveyor of weird fiction in its early days, and deserves to have his work live on. Definitely be sure to jump on this one as soon as possible.

Given that this kickstarter involves 5 different stories (4 novelletes/novellas and 1 novel are the contents), there are many different tiers and combinations thereof you can choose from:

Like The Cosmic Courtship, all three books in this project will be offered in the following formats:

• Pocket Paperback - Cirsova has been bringing back the Pocket Paperback format! These are no-frills and have a small type face to reduce page count and costs. A good, cheap way to get the stories, but maybe not the best for older readers and the visually impaired.
• Magazine Format - Cirsova recreates the look and feel of the pulps with these large-sized double-columned magazine-style paperbacks.
• Trade Paperback - Standard trade paperback format. Good balance of cost and convenience.
• Hardcover - Cirsova is offering each book as a handsome hardcover volume with wrap-around dust-jacket.

We are also offering an incredible limited edition coffee table Omnibus that collects ALL of Hawthorne's All-Story Weekly fiction in a single oversized volume.

All in all, that's 13 different books!

It's quite a meaty campaign. There are combinations and add-ons in different formats you can look into, as well stretch goals and all sorts of production information on the campaign page. Be sure to look into it yourself. I can't even begin to explain it all.

Once again, you can find the Julian Hawthorne kickstarter here.

In other news, I am feeling better and am back on track again. There will be a post this Thursday, and it will be a doozy. 

Until then, have a good one!

Also, don't forget about the Pulp Rock campaign! There's more stories of adventure and wonder ahead of you!
