I still enjoy listening to the work of Brian Eno, Robert Fripp, Difford & Tillbrook, Madness, Bad Manners, etc. Currently, I rather enjoy the music of Buck Owens.
Movies
I occasionally see films with my son. Generally action films and horror movies.
Television
I don't watch television.
Books
I'm a voracious reader. Some of my favorite authors are Charles Bukowski, Barry Gifford, Charles Portis, Ernest Hemingway, Jack Kerouac, John Dos Passos, and Sherwood Anderson.
About me: 50 years old, I work for the USPS as a letter carrier. I spend all of my free time writing, reading, hiking, and backpacking. I hit our national and state parks, forests, and wilderness areas as often as possible.
As an author, I've sold more than fifty short stories. I've worked in the comic book industry, also.
I currently live in Matthews, NC with my wife and son.
My first novel, The Flock, was published in August 2006 by Five Star Publishing. I've also created and co-edited the anthology EVERMORE, which is available from Arkham House Books. I also have a movie deal in the works.

Hey Bob!~ Congrats on the ()Option deal. You're a way deserving writer! I still think we should run with our own version of Everettes stuff he ruined trying to adapt over your script. Maybe relaunch in a diff. format? It had a lot of potential and to be honest M.Angel was the best work of my career for many reasons.
