"The Brief Autobiography of an Inconsequential Scribbler" is a short non-fiction piece by the late American author Howard Phillips Lovecraft. It was first published in The Silver Clarion Volume 3, Number 1 in April 1919 [1].
Synopsis[]
As may be guessed from the title, the work is a brief rundown on Lovecraft’s life. It is notable for containing an example of his early poetry, "The Poem of Ulysses; or The New Odyssey," an 1897 piece which Lovecraft describes as his "earliest surviving attempt at authorship."
