The Art of Pain won the Sunscreen Film Festival Audience Award.  March 2008!

INSPIRE AN ARTIST, RUIN HIS LIFE -- Jack works an easy job at the movie theater with his pal Nick, a sci-fi geek, and his aspiring actress girlfriend, Sharon. He used to be a pretty good painter, but there isnÕt much inspiration in this zombie-like existence. All of that is about to change. Enter Marcus, a pissed off ninja-in-training with something to prove. Fueled by disgust for JackÕs apathy and a cruel sensei, Marcus takes it upon himself to teach a brutal lesson: Great art comes from great pain. What follows is a bloody trail of seduction, murder and maiming that only a ninja can inflict. Now, painting in a frenzy, Jack must fight not only for his art, but his life.

You may have seen this already if you've read my MySpace blog, but this month I launched a new monthly John Everson ~ Dark Arts e-Newsletter.
It's a low-volume, periodic update on my new books, short stories, upcoming signings, etc.... and I'll also offer special offers and contests for signed books through the list.
Since you are on my MySpace Friends list, I hope you (and any of your friends who are into horror) will sign up for the newsletter (it's free!) on my regular website -- at www. johneverson. com/list. htm.
There's also a button that links to the signup form on my MySpace profile in the left column. Hope to share my Dark Arts with you!

Have a great week!

Yours in Dark Arts,

John
