Music
A weird mixture! Rock, ancient pop music, musicals. Some classics, early jazz. And some heavy metal and industrial lounge. Think Alboth! and Steamboat Switzerland.
Movies
'The Producers' (the old version, not the new one.) 'Jurassic Park' (but only for the dinosaurs) 'Our Man in Havana' 'Double Indemnity', almost any old British film (except 'Whistle Down the Wind' all copies of which should be rounded up and destroyed.)
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
--I know this is early, but, hey, my memory isn't what it once was (who am I? who are you?), so that it's probably now or never. --So, while I've long-since quit celebrating my own birthdays, that’s not to say that I’m not still able to wish anyone still celebrating theirs a --Have a Happy One. And may you have many more.
It's a rainy Friday here. Great weather for writing. I'm waiting for the proof copy of A Demon Awaits to arrive and just getting down to work on my next book.
