Any weird fiction fans here? I'm talking about the real stuff, from Weird Tales of the 1920s/30s.

I got into the genre in the usual way, through Lovecraft. And in the usual way I started exploring work of various writers in his circle, and the work of writers whom Lovecraft admired.

Hashtags for some of the weird fiction writers I like:

The Dark Angel, a collection of tales by Seabury Quinn published in the early 30s.

He was the most popular of all the Weird Tales writers. His reputation did not last. While other Weird Tales writers have gained some literary respectability Quinn is still reviled as the kind of hack writer who gave the pulps a bad name.

In fact his stories are great fun.
