Don't have much time for films with all the books and music, but favourites include This is Spinal Tap, The Blues Brothers, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Performance, The Doors and The Stepford Wives (the original, of course).
Television
Wall-to-wall news, with occasional breaks for CSI, Bargain Hunt, Neighbours, Home and Away, 8 Simple Rules and a documentary when the subject matter appeals. And yes, I watch Big Brother. Don't ask me why...

...and many, many, many more... Yes, I like books, and only wish I had time to read more.
Writer of postmodern fiction (novels and short stories); works are blackly humourous and, staunchly anti-genre and wilfully not plot-driven, with tendencies toward experimentalism and gratuitous sex and violence.

About me: Purveyor of fine postmodern fiction since 1975.
That isn't to say I've been physically writing since 1975: life is research.
Apart from a few gig reviews in local inkies and a growing number on line - in particular at Whisperinandhollerin - and a handful of short stories that have appeared on-line, publications to date include 'Bad Houses
(2006), a collection of short stories, and 'C.N.N.'
(2007) - a multimedia extravaganza produced in collaboration with Stuart Bateman, and THE PLAGIARIST.
A riot of experimentation, THE PLAGIARIST is an example of contemporary theory in practice, melding Bloom’s theories on influence to a series of unreliable or schizophrenic narrators against a backdrop created by Frederic Jameson. With a narrative fabricated from the effluvia of the now, which continues the work started by Burroughs and developed by contemporaries like Kenji Siratori, this book demonstrates how postmodern society can cause the individual to lose themselves and the plot.
Both 'Bad Houses' and 'THE PLAGIARIST' are available on Amazon now.
Items posted in the blog section are a range of homeless fragments and works in progress, punctuated by the occasional review as the mood takes me: few have been previously published or otherwise seen the light of day. Some may surface elsewhere in a revised form one day: others may not.

More blogs, etc., and more to come in due course (naturally). These things take time.
Who I'd like to meet: Myself in one of my former lives. Also people with diverse, eclectic and obscure tastes in music and an appreciation of non-mainstream literature - the kind I read, and of course, the kind I write...
Publishers, agents, anyone interested in getting my work out there are more than welcome, and similarly anyone who thinks they would like me to contribute to forthcoming publications, etc., is someone I'd like to meet.
Finally... I'm not so keen to 'meet' get-rich-quick schemes, ways to win the lottery, investment opportunities, adult sites / people who want me to pay to see nude pics, or lamecore rap acts. Really, what in my profile suggests I have any interest in the 'hoods of Cardiff, etc? And Nazi scum can fuck right off. Now.
Life is a soon enough forgotten affliction/We can no more think of NOW/the immediate interval/than we can think of the past as having been and the future rendering the paradox of memory almost unbearable/The weight of death lies in its inability to be misunderstood/It makes no error/and leaves us with little hope of bearing it/Desire neither consents or refuses/it is that reserve of feeling which cannot be felt without approaching the night without sleep/Suicide is always apart from thought or truth in which the self propels itself to that place forbidden to all/foreign to will and desire/Desire to compose is a pointless obsessive search for absent meaning in the obscurity of the interim of intervals of thought/The neurotransmitter has resistance to being embedded in memory without the exact degree of trauma/Desire to compose is a search for absent meaning in the ruinous awareness of obscurity of the intervals of having just thought/Some women unveil their bodies while retaining their mystery/Regards Lee Kwo/

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."
...the fuking subject is never separate from the social world/be it molecular or molar as Deleuze would have it/the subject is always thoroughly permeated by it and liable to distortions inculcated by the dominant ideology be it reactionary or radical/The subject is structured in and by ideologies in the sense of the "as if" formulations thru which the subject comprehends its relationships with the world/These ideological practices/relations are institutionalized in culture and manifested in linguistic practice/As such they enter into the very center of human consciousness/There can be no essentialist assumption of human integrity as humanism is an illusion/In order to long for something one must have already lost it/All art is ana-esthetic/ Regards Nils Urstatt/
Hi Chris/ Yes the blog is a dense text and it is an area that I am currently working through in relation to my novel The Celibate Autopsy which looks like being published in November/December/ I have to consider the Post Human in relation to its resonance with the Neo Baroque and also Deleuze concept of the "death enterprise"/ The Neo Baroque is an area I was vaguely familiar with in relation to the visual arts but had not really taken it into account when considering a "literary" text/ Celibate Autopsy is a serial text in that Book one sets pretexts that are followed up in Book two as "sequel" to use a favorite Neo Baroque term/There are other indications of the Neo Baroque as in fragmentation/non-linear text/lack of closure and an exhausted fascination with signs and layers of somewhat incoherent narrative/ The cross media use of the Alien series is an oft cited example of this term in current practices/I would appreciate any critical response you have on this area in particular differences or coherences with the post modern which I know is one of the areas of yr expertise/ Thanks for responding/ Regards Lee Kwo/
DaDaMaxx/ The anti- prophet Tzara following on from Nietzsche sprake the death of god art history spirit shitting personal hygiene random gunshot wounds the torture of the obsessive flesh of the eroticised subject as Dogman scratching surface mess of noise depth of floating signifiers cognition not embodiment and finally stealing radiating pillaging appropriating Schopenhauer among many others under the pretence of mental illness an invert criminal act of pure theft/ This is how a delirium begins/ Some one steals a slash/ the artifice of pornography this is what he has become ICON the man of no name exposure mad with vain glamour out of reasons bordering on the limit the male drone grasps death as its sanction denied any simulation of exposed cock that accidental anachronism of the 20th century The woman impulsively disguised as other she must be the logic circuit of shutdown of the feminine as omnivorous combative and penetrative deep in the age of slow panic Extrovision and introspersion turn the death machine on to escape velocity the surrealist SKz failure to realize that motives are not enough and words asphyxiate praxis the insanity of man howled rushed confessions of strange new becomings choked on vanity / always open to blunt resistance by the very nature of jealously guarded scars of war and the right to reply to the other superficial wounds of phallic desire / Regards Lee Kwo
