Canavan | 377 comments December 26, 2013 was the 100th anniversary of the last day Ambrose Bierce was known to be alive. Douglas Anderson reproduces his last known letters on the Wormwoodania blog site.

Latasha (latasha513) I LOVE THIS GUY!!!!!! Mr. Bierce is by far one of my favorites. we read An Occurance At Owl Creek Bridge in high school and I never forgot it. I don't know why I waited so long to read more of his stories but I did and now I think I've read most of his horror stories but not his war stories. I really, really like Ambrose Bierce!! <3 <3 <3

Latasha (latasha513) I'm going to host a buddy read for Cobwebs from an Empty Skull in a few weeks if anyone would like to join. this book is in the public domain. I have the Gutenberg app and found it on there.

Justin (justinbienvenue) | 71 comments I have been intrigued by Bierce since I stumbled upon him last year. Only recently did I find out he was a solider in the Civil War before he became a writer. He's always been one of those names I heard mentioned but never looked into him until recently.

I will be reading Cobwebs from an Empty Skull with Latasha as part of the buddy read. It will be my first read of his, looking forward to it!

Latasha (latasha513) Yeah, stuff you missed in history did a podcast about hi, just search for them. I also think he's got something to do with from dusk til dawn part 3, but I haven't watched it. This year on his last day known alive -dec. 26th I think, I'm gonna read a bunch of his stories.
