Hey everyone. Like you all, I'm sure, I'm a big fan of Lovecraft.

One thing of note I've seen here that I think is really interesting, is that if you ask everyone what their favourite Lovecraft story is, almost everyone gives a different answer. Normally, I might expect that a particular few would stand out as "the big ones". But it seems that everyone enjoys different stories and for different reasons, which I find very interesting. It's almost probably very indicative how how skilled, and varied, Lovecraft's writing is: it appeals to all sorts of people and all sorts of different literary tastes.

Anyway, a little while ago I decided to try and figure out what my favourite twelve of his were. And, in collaboration with a friend, I did those twelve up as audiobook-type readings. They're nothing super-special, but I just figured the people here might enjoy hearing our interpretations of these classics. Enjoy.
