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."
Well thankya kindly Mela? How was your summer? I havent stopped making music-- We played Glastonbury and Lovebox but We're still crawling toward the finish line on 2, possibly 3, records.

You who long for the Knightly Order, It is fitting you should lead a new life; Devoutly keeping watch in prayer, Fleeing from sin, pride and villainy; The Church defending, The Widows and Orphans succouring. Be bold and protect the people, Be loyal and valiant, taking nothing from others. Thus should a Knight rule himself.
He should be humble of heart and always work, And follow Deeds of Chivalry.; Be loyal in war and travel greatly; He should frequent tourneys and joust for his Lady Love; He must keep honor with all, So that he cannot be held to blame. No cowardice should be found in his doings, Above all, he should uphold the weak, Thus should a Knight rule himself. — Eustace Deschamps
