    06/10/07: Writing . . . Lisa . . . reading . . . good coffee . . . homemade beer . . . wine . . . not in that order. OK it's a close running between Lisa and writing, but I'm sure you understand. I love her. Writing is what I love to do.Anything else? Sports - baseball - I'm a Detroit Tiger and Houston Astro fan. In basketball it's the Detroit Pistons. Hockey - the Detroit Red Wings, damn it. That will do for now.

  • Movies

    Depends on the mood. I do think the superhero thing has been overdone and needs to be be put on the back burner for a while.

  • Television

    I respect the opinion that television is full of crap, but it's not my outlook unless you're watching Mama's Family. That, no matter how you look at it, is total garbage. OK, there is trash on tv, but we have built in filters (our minds) and in my case I'm able to something worth my time out of just about anything I watch... again, except for Mama's Family. Favorite Shows: Lost, 24, The Office, House

  • Heroes

    I'm not sure if I like the term "heroes" so I'm listing those I admire: People who are kind... survivors of various tragedies... those who understand the value of love and loyalty, when sacrifice is necessary and when it is not.

About me:

Time for a Change

I've been told by my better half (Lisa) that I need to update this section. She's right, so here goes: My name is John and I'm a pretty quiet guy most of the time. Eh . . . no, I can see her giving me that look. Let's try this again. My name is John, I'm fifty-five in years and I seem to have an abundance of gray hair coming in. I'm originally from Michigan (Coldwater), but since high school graduation I've lived in Cuba, Florida, South Carolina, Virginia, Texas and now Tennessee. I spent about 14 years in the navy, attended a lot of college classes and know just enough worthless crap to drive anyone nuts. Anyway, I'm basically a nice guy - here to make friends, have fun and pimp my writing.

What I've Done

If you look across the page you'll see some of my covers. Not many - I'm still relatively new at this, but enough to show you that someone is probably reading my work or I wouldn't keep getting takers. Below is a list to match the covers:

Gifted Trust, Biting Dog Press 2003 - novel
Hello Neighbor, Biting Dog Press 2003 - chap book
Weeping Mary, Biting Dog Press 2004 - chap book
Prader-Willi, Post Mortem Magazine, 2005
Monkey Love, Biting Dog Press, 2007 - novella
Marquee, Insidious Publications, released now

John's Guest Book

Who I'd like to meet:

I like meeting people who share interests, particularly those who read and it doesn't matter if they enjoy horror or not. Myspace has given me that chance a number of times. There's nothing I enjoy more than sitting and chatting over a meal or a cup of coffee or whatever.
