Happy 116th birthday to Robert E. Howard, author, poet and an American and Texas original. We hope everyone reads a favorite Howard story or poem today while enjoying a libation of choice. Raise your glass to the incomparable Robert E. Howard!
And while we're celebrating anniversaries, Robert E. Howard Days (June 10-11) will feature the 90th birthday of Howard's Conan the Cimmerian and the writing of two of his masterpieces: Worms of the Earth and "Cimmeria", the poem that inspired Conan.
We'll also be marking the 40th anniversary of the first movie, Conan the Barbarian.
Details of this and more happenings at Howard Days are forthcoming and will be found here and on Facebook. Hope to see you there!
