Yeah.

I have some fondness left for the actual work, and for derivative works trying to stay true to the atmosphere of Lovecraft's work. But all the memes and kitschy stuff is pretty meh.

Lovecraft is one of only two (prolific) authors whose entire bodies of work I've read... the other is Isaac Asimov.

Asimov kicked ass. I wish he had written more Norby the Mixed Up Robot books.
