Once upon a time, there was a left-brained boy who was good at math and science and nuclear physics and stuff.
Although he liked to read a lot and appreciated art, he never expressed himself other than taking pride in writing very clear and concise scientific summaries.
He noticed that others' writing sucked for the most part and was determined to find out why and NOT do whatever they were doing that sucked.
His right brain was waking up, and he learned to do some art with Photoshop, which greatly pleased him.
During this time, he was married, parented, then unmarried (but--NEVER unparented--nuh-uh!).
He also had a personal best running streak of 10 days. Then he decided to break that streak and hasn't missed a single day of running (about 2 miles) for over 30 years.
Finally, after he had a revelation about what made fiction interesting, engaging, and not sucking--he wrote the mystery MIRACLE MYX--which went on to become a bestseller.
THE END

How can Elbridge Sonnet, a man who disappeared 250 years ago, control the destinies of citzens in present-day Miracle, Massachusetts? He could have had a mystic vision; he could have believed in miracles; he could have encoded a secret that had the potential to unleash dark desires and fanatical beliefs; he could have thought the secret was safe forever.
But, Sonnet never foresaw a Myx Amens.
Myx Amens can't sleep--hasn't in over three years since his second death. This leaves him with endless hours that he fills with others' lives. Mostly collecting the truths and untruths they hide even from themselves. He traps all this while a captive of his own unerring, unremitting synesthetic memory. Oh, did I tell you synesthesia, the inexplicable mingling of his senses, was a surprising remnant of his first death?
Stare though Myx's eyes for an unblinking 42 hours as he squeezes through the cracks in Miracle's peaceful facade to find that the nature of man may evolve, but it never changes.
An unfathomable puzzle box stirs the forces that would have been better left buried with the founding of Miracle centuries before. But Friday night's executions and hazy glitches in Myx's heretofore perfect recollections point towards a clock that's ticking down to the 250-year-old celebration of Founder's Day on Tuesday.
Myx is looking forward to it--even if it means his third, and probably final death.
Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my 2nd horror no3vel 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
