Vale, Cimmerian

The Cimmerian, home of probably the best articles about Robert E Howard and Co, is closing down.

But of late, Deuce and I haven’t been able to be that involved — I’m ashamed to say I’ve been so busy I haven’t even been able to read many of the current posts at TC. And so every time Deuce and I see a mistake in a blog post we should have corrected before publication, or a critical take that it was our job as manager/editor to help expand or deepen, we’ve felt like we’re letting the TC name down. If I had it to do over, I would have closed the blog down back in 2008, but I don’t have that time-travel luxury. So now, in May of 2010, with less and less time for it, Deuce and I both decided that we should bite the bullet now, better late than never.

Read the full post, while it’s still there. Hopefully the site will be archived at Leo Grin’s personal site, but you can also try your luck at the Internet Archive. It would be a damn shame for this content to disappear completely.
