\"\"Dennis Detwiller\u2019s \u201cLithic\u201d<\/h2>\n

With the Stone Skin Press Kickstarter<\/a> in its climactic days, we\u2019ll be highlighting the contributors and stories behind Shotguns v. Cthulhu<\/em>, our anthology of action-packed Lovecraftiana.<\/p>\n

In Dennis Detwiller\u2019s \u201cLithic\u201d, a young man retreats to his Vermont home still aching from a bad break-up. What he finds there is not recovery, or solace, but an ancient presence up on Indian Hill.<\/p>\n

Dennis Detwiller\u2019s stream of shattered consciousness draws us into the narrator\u2019s\u00a0 disconnected fugue state for an intimate date with madness. \u201cLithic\u201d proves the enduring power of the subtle scare, with a slow build, authentically drawn contemporary voice, and very selective set of Lovecraftian allusions. And then, because this is Shotguns v. Cthulhu<\/em>, the mayhem.<\/p>\n

This was the first story I received for the collection. As I read it and realized I had a home run on my hands, I knew the project was headed in the right direction.<\/p>\n
