   Kim's Blurbs
About me:
I went to school at St. John's College (Annapolis, MD, B.A., 1988), Harvard Divinity School (MTS, 1990), and the University of Notre Dame (Ph.D. 1995). I used to write horror fiction constantly in high school, but suddenly stopped when I went to college. Too busy reading, most of it not horror, but just getting ideas and learning to think better. I saw, in particular, that as I studied Christian theology, I was especially fascinated by those writers on the "dark side" - Augustine, Dante, Dostoevsky, Flannery O'Connor, for example. Then last year the horror writing just started back up. First I did Gospel of the Living Dead: George Romero's Visions of Hell on Earth (Baylor, 2006), connecting zombie movies to some of the Christian themes and images I saw in them. Then I took the plunge back into fiction with Dying to Live (Permuted Press, 2007). I'm happy to be doing this once again. Visit my WEBSITE

Who I'd like to meet:
George Romero, of course. The lads of Judas Priest.

Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my new erotic horror novel THE 13TH is now in stores everywhere! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride!

There's even a website devoted just to the book, with an interactive map of the places and characters at www.the13th-horror.com.

Edward Lee called THE 13TH "A double-barreled shotgun blast of macabre entertainment -- an expert amalgamation of grotesquerie, eroticism, mystery, and pitch-black occult horror that no fan of the genre can miss."

And Gary A. Braunbeck said, "John Everson's The 13th is the first out-and-out horror novel in a long while to actually scare the **** out of me while reading it. It's stylish, extremely well-written, filled with richly-drawn characterizations, and boasts a labyrinthine plot worthy of Umberto Eco. Trust me -- this one will fry your nerves and break your heart."

Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my 2nd horror novel SACRIFICE is now in stores everywhere, including Amazon.com! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride! Here are a couple reviews it's gotten so far:

“SACRIFICE is a full frontal assault on your senses. It is a dark, brutal, bloody and terribly frightening book. Everson went deep into some dark abyss to bring this book to the light of day.... I highly recommend SACRIFICE.”
—Famous Monsters of Filmland

“John Everson manages in SACRIFICE to dispense buckets of blood, provide edgy perversity, and walk the tenuous tightrope of horror and sex without falling: It’s rather an amazing feat.” –Hell Notes

Chicks Dig Scars - Chapter One

Chicks dig scars, everyone knows that, right? Meet Severence DeSnappio, a man who creates ‘fake’ injuries for desperate clients. He’ll get you a stab wound, shot gun blast, snowboarding injury - but a bite from a great white shark?

S
et in Miami, Chicks Dig scars is a lyrical, Lynchian mix of dream logic and hard boiled detection.
