Mostly country and 80's music, but I like some alternative such as Seether and Evanescence. I also make playlists for each novel I write, and since the music reflects the mood of the book, the music is often not what I would choose to listen to when I'm not writing. For example, I listen to a lot of rock music while writing the Sydney Croft novels!
Movies
Serenity, Star Trek (all), Galaxy Quest, The Mummy, While You Were Sleeping, Forrest Gump, Ever After, Independence Day, Pirates of the Caribbean, Jurassic Park, Hellboy, Underworld, the X-Men movies, the Indiana Jones movies...I could go on forever!
Television
Grey's Anatomy, Lost, The Unit, Desperate Housewives, Ghost Whisperer, Ugly Betty, ER, Bones, Criminal Minds, Angel, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly, Army Wives. All of the Star Trek shows.
Books
Too many to list! But mostly romance, fantasy, and historical fiction. My favorite authors include Robert Jordan, Sharon Kay Penman, and George R. R. Martin.
Heroes
The men and women who serve in the military. Firefighters. Police officers. Teachers. My husband, who proudly serves in the U.S. Coast Guard. My writing partner, Stephanie Tyler, who deals with more on a daily basis than anyone I know, and yet, she keeps writing and stays positive. Anyone who is kind to animals.
New York Times Bestselling author of sexy dark paranormal novels for Grand Central Publishing (formerly Warner Books.) The Demonica series is set in and around an underworld hospital staffed with demons, vampires, and werewolves, and the first three books, Pleasure Unbound, Desire Unchained, and Passion Unleashed, are now available.
BLURB AND PRAISE FOR PLEASURE UNBOUND:
Someone is killing demons–someone other than the Aegis demon slayers, anyway. Now Eidolon, a doctor at Underworld General as well as a demon whose instincts to mate are growing stronger, must pair up with a sexy Aegis Guardian named Tayla Mancuso to learn the truth behind the killings. But Tayla has her own agenda. Her assignment is to find a way to destroy Underworld General. When she falls for Eidolon, who has shown her erotic pleasures she’d never dreamed of, she must face the horrors of her past and choose between becoming one of the very creatures she’s hunted–or death.
“Very dark, very sexy, and very creative. Ione’s Demonica series will have the most jaded paranormal fans perking up!”–Emma Holly, USA Today bestselling author of DEMON’S FIRE
“What a ride! Dark, sexy and very intriguing, this book gripped me from start to finish. I can’t wait to read the next in the series!”–Nalini Singh, NYT bestselling author of MINE TO POSSESS
“A heroine with attitude and a hot-blooded demon make for a dangerously erotic, wonderfully satisfying read. Ione knows how to make your blood boil and your heart race as you devour each and every page.”—Cheyenne McCray, New York Times bestselling author of DARK MAGIC

Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my 2nd horror novel SACRIFICE was released this month - and is in stores everywhere, including Amazon.com. I hope you'll check out the book! Here are a couple reviews it's gotten:
“SACRIFICE is not for the timid or weak of heart, it 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
