.... is finally in the mail to McFarland, and I've got my fingers crossed that it's out before the end of the year. Richard Alden (the hero in Arch Hall's THE SADIST), Eric Braeden (COLOSSUS: THE FORBIN PROJECT, more), Ann Carter on CURSE OF THE CAT PEOPLE, Robert Colbert and James Darren on THE TIME TUNNEL, Robert Conrad on WILD WILD WEST, director Maury Dexter (DAY MARS INVADED EARTH, HOUSE OF THE DAMNED, etc.), screenwriter Pat Fielder (MONSTER THAT CHALLENGED THE WORLD, RETURN OF DRAC, etc.), Richard Gordon on the 1955 SVENGALI, Ron Harper on the PLANET OF THE APES teleseries, kid actor Charles Herbert, Jimmy Lydon on ROCKY JONES, SPACE RANGER, Lee Meriwether, Laurie QUEEN OF OUTER SPACE Mitchell, Tandra MESA OF LOST WOMEN Quinn, William Reynolds on LAND UNKNOWN, THING THAT COULDN'T DIE, CULT OF THE COBRA, more, Betta St. John on CORRIDORS OF BLOOD, HORROR HOTEL and her Tarzan movies, Corman stock player Jay Sayer (SAGA OF VIKING WOMEN, etc.), Olive Sturgess from the 1963 THE RAVEN, a three-way interview with TOM CORBETT, SPACE CADET stars Frankie Thomas, Al Markim and Jan Merlin, and a reprint of Preston Jones' interview with Hans J. Salter. I'm going to push to put a shot of Tandra Quinn in MESA on the cover.

I sure *hope* it's out before the end of the year because, in my dopey unorganized way, the interview book AFTER that is already in the homestretch. In addition to the "standard-size" interviews, there are a lot of short ones in there, people who only did one genre movie and/or didn't have a heckuva lot to say, so even though the eventual book won't be THAT much longer, it'll have more like sixty interviews. And the beat goes on.
