On September 23rd at 10:00 a.m. the city of Los Angeles' Palms-Rancho Park library is going to have a dedication ceremony for Ray. They are hoping for a Q&A with a couple famous author friends of Ray's(disclosed when they confirm) at 11:30 a.m.

This library is closest to Ray's home. He spent fifty some odd years haunting those bookshelves.

Only six weeks before you will have wished you had ordered one:

A quick review of a few of the comments from posters (from jkt's link) tell the true story on this classic RB All-Hallows animated tale!

Presently, Tantor Audio have four Bradbury titles available on CD for only $6.99.

Death Is A Lonely Business, I Sing The Body Electric and Other Stories, The Martian Chronicles, and The Illustrated Man.

The October issue of Los Angeles Magazine has a small interview with Margaret Atwood. In it she says that in her early writings she would channel Ray.

And if you fancy, here's a nice screen capture for your viewing pleasure.

Ray! The Illustrated Man! Richard Matheson!

On Matheson's left, a family zombie from THE OMEGA MAN.

Sure looks like one, except the cap is too big.

Surely it's an ink pot he's holding, so the pen is some kind of dip-it-in-the-ink pen. A featherless quill, if you like.
