We had a big night planning the episode structure and content for the forthcoming Strange Reads YouTube video series. After a few mind-maps, desperate scribbles, and watching what other people have done, Fiona and I jumped into research. After a quick and engrossing, two hours, a lot of the information we need is on the page.
The first story we will cover is ‘The Statement of Randolph Carter.’ It was the very first Lovecraft tale I ever read and therefore, has a special place in my heart. When people ask which Lovecraft story they should read first, I always recommend this one. Of course, the first video in our ‘Who is…?’ series, will be H.P.Lovecraft.
With good fortune, our goal is to build a community and eventually take story/author requests. For now, we have a list of around ten stories to get us started. I can’t wait to get some footage in the camera – exciting times ahead.
On milestones, this post should represent the first blog entry to be mailed out to users of the site.
