WHO
ARE YOU AND WHAT’S YOUR DEAL?
Micah S. Harris, writer of fantasy, mashups,
pulp, and quirky fiction. I’m a regular contributor to the anthology series Tales of the Shadowmen. My
self-published novel The Eldritch NewAdventures of Becky Sharp projected Thackeray’s amoral heroine into a Lovecraftian
universe. And, of course, there the collaborative novel I did with you Josh, Jim Anthony: the Hunters for Airship 27.
I’m also a historian of Hollywood’s lesser
explored corners, such as the life of Schlitze the pinhead from the 1932 M.G.M.
classic, Freaks. I’m currently trying to place a novel I’ve written based
on Schlitze’s life. Comics readers might know me from Heaven’s War, the 2004 Image graphic novel pitting the Oxford
Inklings against Aleister Crowley. My most recent comics project, also for
Image, was Lorna, Relic Wrangler.
Finishing up revisions on a new pulp novel yet
to be announced. I’m also preparing further comics projects with my
collaborator, artist Loston Wallace who did sequential art for Lorna, Relic Wrangler, and the cover and
inside illos for The Eldritch New
Adventures of Becky Sharp. Also, I’m looking into publishing my first
E-novel this year. It features some of the characters I’ve previously put into
print but in a story unlike anything I’ve published before. It’s like a
parallel universe for these characters.
WHO
ARE SOME OF YOUR INFLUENCES?
Ray Bradbury, Philip K. Dick, David Lynch, Alan
Moore, C.S. Lewis, Mark Helprin. In the pulp novel I’m finishing up, some of my
passages recall Mark Helprin’s Winter’s
Tale. I wrote my master’s thesis in literature on that book. They’re
finally going to make a movie of it, featuring my favorite actress from Downton Abbey, Jessica Brown Findlay.

CAN WE FIND YOUR STUFF?
