Gourmet Life! It's far more simple than it sounds. It's about the search for life's uniqueness that unveils itself to the child (any of us) who watches a butterfly launch into the air or lovers who feast on Tapas with fingers and flattery. It's the food, the mood, the care, the authenticity, the search, and ultimately... the path you choose to get there.
Heirloom Gardening (esp. Vegetables)! You know the vegetables you buy in the grocery store? They don't compare to the REAL THING! There are infinite varieties out there with unique and exciting tastes. So do yourself a Favor, and try-out Heirloom Flavor. <---- Yes! I made that up. *silly grin*
Ghosts & Spirits and those strange unexplanable occurances! I believe! For all I've seen, for all that has happened -- I would be worse than a Fool to have remaining doubts.

MONTEREY BAND NEEDS FIDDLE/TIN WHISTLE
BOG IRON needs you!! They are an aggressive sounding hybrid of Metal and Trad Irish tunes, and they need a committed Fiddle and/or tin whistle to add that unique twist we need. They play loud and hard so you cannot be afraid of volume or distortion. They have tons of fun doing this and have gigs lined with more in the works.

JUST A LITTLE MORE :-)
Writer of fiction and non-fiction with insights into daily living, food, and the supernatural – collectively and respectively. Poetry is my preferred method of expression and it can only barely contain the intensity of my emotions and thought. Poetic Prose often marks my work. I am overcome by the rhythm in my head. Then there are the film and TV projects.
ParaWomen SCREAM Radio on Blog Talk – We are Paranormal Women on the Radio! Our show highlights fields of the Paranormal & Horror. I am the voice of the show’s intro and outro. We are also The League of Extraordinary Paranormal Women. While I believe in ghosts, spirits, hauntings, etc., I do not believe that every situation is a haunting. In most cases, there are practical explanations and physical reasons for sights, sounds, and feelings. Of course, sometimes…
ParaWomen SCREAM Radio airs on Thursday nights from 4:30pm PACIFIC; 7:30pm EASTERN in the USA and the URL is: Go to: ParaWomen Radio on BlogTalk and look for “The-Gothic-Gourmet” profile on BlogTalk.
Being a Romantic Goth, it is easy for me to take the basics of all of my experiences and see them through the lens of Dark Romanticism, finding lightness in the joy and sorrow of living.
I promote a Positive Lifestyle. To live a gourmet life does not means that no matter how difficult OR great things can be, one seeks to find happiness and poignancy in the most simple moments. A key ingredient is belief, but don't be fooled. If you believe you deserve a good life, but blame others or wait for someone else to fix things, than your actions do not match your thoughts and you will not succeed. Live consciously. Live your life with no regret!
SunnySideoftheGraveyard.com is my new online retail store. Think: Paranormal Culinary Lifestyle! Eclectic, fun, and useful, I am continually adding products that have sold out and bringing in new ones. I am now carrying CDs of unsigned Monterey Bay musicians – and offer free shipping on CD purchases. Check it out! SunnySideoftheGraveyard.com
I occasionally co-star in micro-independent movies and was once an extra in the Japanese TV Min-Series "Strawberry Road". I’m told one can still find it in Japanese video stores.

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."
