With the SEO stuff I've been reading at work unanimously proclaiming that, when you get down to it, there's no substitute for good content, I realised that I need to add some actual stuff about hellhounds to HHnet.

Well, it's a bit of a gyp to register hellhound.net and not mention hellhounds on it except for my own fictional ones; it would be courteous to add some resources on classical ones. I've had the intention lurking in the back of my mind for a while, and what with my other commitments taking priority it'll be another while until I act on it, but in the meantime I put up a really really brief thing with a couple of the links I've found particularly useful.

And of course there are millions of sites out there with brief descriptions of Cerb and lots that mention the spectral dogs of the British isles (most of them, I suspect, more or less copied and pasted from Trubshaw), so as usual I've been wondering "what can I provide that that lot doesn't?".

So far, I'm not sure. Visiting Bungay and Blythburgh etc. with a camera and collecting some memorabilia would be fun, but other folks have done that and it's just as easy to link out.

I don't particularly want to do reviews of the various Baskervilles adaptations, because I am no cinema critic and by no means impartial about Sherlock or phosphorous wolfhounds; and while it would be nice to acquire Zoltan, Hound of Dracula and put up some stills or clips from it, it would also be major copyvio.

I'm not widely read in Bangsian fantasy, so have nothing original to say about hellhounds in general fiction. I have no interest in manga, so will not be providing any material about all those "angul & deemun bishiez yey!" titles. And I'm no artist either! So, hmm...
