John asked Jeff VanderMeer:

I love the Dickension idea of releasing the books over a shorter period than usual, keeping them fresh. But also the size and cover designs really stand out. They remind me of the John Wyndham novels. Was he an influence?

Jeff VanderMeer Alas, no. I still haven't gotten around to Wyndham. I will soon. Mostly, the whole thing comes out of my experiences in the North Florida wilderness.
