Grant's voice is so hypnotic. Hard to focus on the story when I'm being lulled into a reverie. Wish the audiobook was done by them, but I'm sure Vikas Adam can handle the task.
Grant, thank you so much for sharing all this. I’ve hoped for something like this Substack as long as I’ve read your work and it’s more than delivering on my hopes. I pre-ordered when I saw the first announcement and I can’t wait to read Luda.
Thanks for sharing so much and: Happy 10th Anniversary it MorrisonCon! Wishing you and Kristan the best.
Hello! My name is Lynwood (Will) Bradley, I just attended your panel in Los Angeles at the Glorya Kaufman Performing Arts Center and I asked the question about acquiring the license to produce either Red King Rising or Depravity with my theatre company The Heretic Voice, LLC. You told me to locate you on Substack and get in touch with your wife (whom you said handled the business end of such things) I haven’t found another way of reaching out to you except through these comments, is there anyway you or someone else could respond and aid me in getting in touch.

So- 'suppose now is as good a time as any to spin you the tale of the two people who run this account. For the past two and a half years we've been using sigil and engery magick in hopes to find a mentor. Preferably, someone who could teach outside of a formal Order setting, as antisemetism runs amok in the magick community. Our journey has greatly been influenced by paganism/indigenous european animism practices, but being self taught only gets you so far. It was because of your pronoun unveiling that we stumbled across your Douglas Rushkoff interview from 2020. We immediately felt a current and strings pull in us- we had the obligation to our intuition to dig deeper. The more interviews of yours we listened to, the more we felt the pulls strengthen. Our intentions were to learn more about you from a more authentic place on your terms. Out of respect, we wished for the response to be from you personally when we sought to learn from your wisdom. In a sense, we wanted to get to know you before we could be sure. We made some sigils, lit some candles, and set up some spacetime decorum to set our intentions and signs to look for. As of 9/19/2021 us two 22 year olds pledged to search for a way to become GM's protégés in some sense of the word. It wasnt until mid January that my partner laughed and said you would have a gift for us on the next New Moon. 'Lo and behold, your birthday present to the world on the Black Moon was your project Xanaduum. We went back to work setting intentions for our journey. We decided we needed 3 things to be sure- the full song John Lennon wrote, the real Kathmandu story, and lastly, you talking in your natural Scottish voice rather than the one you often use in interviews. With this last LUDA post, you've answered our requests. After all of our other hallucinations and otherworldly experiences- suppose you could say that this novel will be the answer to the rest of our magickal practice related questions. All but one- what questions do you still seek answers to?

THIS is The Game of MORRISON...!!
A Good Fight should be
like a Small Play, but --
PLAYED, Seriously.
Do You DANCE?
I like PLAYS, The GOOD ones —
Shakespeare. I like ‘Titus Andronicus’ the best,
it’s SWEET…. [Yeah, You WOULD.]
[ He’s not Wrong, You Know. ]

I’m so excited for LUDA. My lock screen has already been updated with the new wallpaper.

Speaking of prose, JFC, I forgot how disturbing the Braille Encyclopedia is.

Can’t wait to read it and wishing you all the success with Luda
Also, gotta second what TJ said above, that it would’ve been amazing to have Grant read the audiobook, cuz that excerpt is stunning.
Preordered it a couple months ago. Honestly cannot wait. I’ll be dropping whatever else I’m reading at the time to devour Luda.
Can’t wait!!
Just finished my review copy Yesterday. Looking forward to seeing you in NYC.
