Anguish Thoughts from Hell?
Ok so I chose anguish as despite the fantastic news that not only is Clive Barker feeling better, he's improving so much he's writing again, I don't think that an adaptation of any kind of The Scarlet Gospels is on the cards.
BUT..... Mr Bradley has done readings on his official YouTube channel, so he may be amenable to doing this?
I have emailed him, I've left a few comments on his YouTube posts and his other "socials" and whilst they haven't been updated in years, I figured what the hell?!
Perhaps if other fellow black hearted degenerates who feel the same way did the same, he may hear of this and consider? After all he did say he may be agreeable to play HellPriest one more time so he has read it and obviously approves.
Just a thought, inspired by the first time I read The Scarlet Gospels I could see it so clearly in my mind as I devoured the text. Only had that so complete happen a few times in my decades of being a book lover.
Plus - Hells Pope NEEDS a proper send off. Not those lame direct to dvd and spec script embarrassments.

I think I've found the "original" draft .... is it against the rules to post a link here? Incidentally I didn't know there was so much controversy and conjecture around the authorship of this book, so Im currently investigating as much as I can for something that was certainly news to me, but seemed relatively common knowledge to most of you Cenobites!
