Television
These days I mainly watch Lost, the Shield, Battlestar Galactica, and Heroes. I'm also waiting for the 4400 to come back on.
Books
George R.R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire, Zelazny's Amber, pretty much anything by Frederik Pohl or Orson Scott Card. Lately, I've been reading a lot of Charles Stross. That's just a start. For science, I'd recommend Richard Dawkins; for nonsense Daniil Kharms; for a challenge Robert Anton Wilson.
I'm Dan Devine, imprecise scientist by day and aspiring author
by night. Recently, I've been published in Dark Fire, Afterburn SF, Crime and Suspense , and Flash Tales magazines.
Before that I dabbled in publishing a bit myself with my own short-lived Fools Motley Magazine.

I've got a half-finished manuscript next to my bed that I pick up and proofread every now and then, so I also lay claim to the term "novelist". Maybe someday I'll finish it.
I'll write pretty much anything that pops into my head, though I tend to mainly work in science fiction, fantasy, and horror. Once in a while something more literary falls out.
Check out my webpage.
Who I'd like to meet: Other writers or artists of any form, fans of good books and bad science fiction, and generally entertaining people.
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."
“Postmodern analysis of science fiction doesn’t get any better than
this. Jump in and see how far down the rabbit hole goes.” William Irwin,
editor of The Matrix and Philosophy: Welcome to the Desert of the Real
and More Matrix and Philosophy: Revolutions and Reloaded Decoded

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
