House of Moonlight: A Checklist by John Howard

House of Moonlight: A Checklist by John Howard


"I founded House of Moonlight one Saturday morning in May 1981. At least that’s how I remember it. (To begin with, House of Moonlight was called House of Moonlight Press, but the “Press” has long since vanished along the way.) I named House of Moonlight after what was, and still is, one of my favourite stories: the novella “The House of Moonlight” by the American writer August Derleth. I had started reading many small-press poetry magazines and collections, and decided that I could have a go as well. I also needed a logo. I knocked one out myself. It looked like it. Later, the noted horror artist Dave Carson produced a vastly superior one, which has symbolised House of Moonlight’s identity ever since"
