Last Saturday evening, I watched via Zoom as The Savage Deeps achieved First in Category in the 2020 CYGNUS Awards. I want to express my gratitude to the judges, organizers, my readers, fans, family, and friends.

A wonderful review of Fatal Depth has just appeared at genre website SFcrowsnest. From the review:
John Carpenter is my favorite director.
