Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my 2nd horror novel SACRIFICE is now in stores everywhere, including Amazon.com! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride! Here are a couple reviews it's gotten so far:

“SACRIFICE 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

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PHILCON!! You are right up my alley! You look like a fantastic con, I hope I am fortunate to attend you one day :)



May all your birthday dreams come true…

Rai Aren, co-author of Secret of the Sands
www. secretofthesands. com

For 12,000 years a dark and deadly secret has been hidden deep below the Great Sphinx of Giza. In present day Egypt, a frightening, yet awe-inspiring story unravels as archaeologists race against time to decipher an ancient truth...

"A deep probing mystery riddled with prophecy and danger, Secret of the Sands uses Egypt and her mythology as a backdrop to delve into the meanings of life and religion." -McNally Robinson

Hi the link is this - www. novel-storm. com.

Registration is free as is almost all the site! All I'm asking is for a user name, password and date of birth. You can even upload a 100x100 pixel pic to appear as you in the forums. Your work appears in a very cool virtual book where the pages turn as you move your mouse over them (I spend many minutes just holding the mouse button over the page and flipping it about-could be a man thing because it looks so cool!lol!!)

Anyhow I diverse - I would love to have you visit - even better register - and better again join in. My biggest ambition is to pay you your just rewards for your talents. In return novel-storm will do just fine - 20% is not greedy, but is sensible without 'ripping authors and illustrators off!

See you soon on my site soon - www. novel-storm. com

Christmas is a Time for Magic!!

I've stepped a little outside my normal "horror writer" persona this week :-) To celebrate the season, I've created a Holiday Madness page, with links to a free Christmas short fantasy story ("Christmas, The Hard Way"), a rock 'n' roll holiday song I wrote and recorded a few years ago ("Show Me Christmas"), holiday wallpaper for your computer and more. You can hear the song and follow the link from my MySpace page, or just click the banner below. Darkest Holidays to you!

Waiting For October is coming!


A lot of my MySpace friends have been wondering where I've been lately and sending me lots of nice comments...and a few worried ones! Rest assured I didn't fall off the earth for the past month -- I just lost my balance for a couple weeks :-) I've been burning the candle 'til midnights lately to design a new anthology for Dark Arts Books called Waiting For October, which finally went to press this week! It features 12 stories in all -- three twisted, funny, gory, creepy and amazing stories each by four authors -- Jeff Strand, Adam Pepper, Sarah Pinborough and Jeffrey Thomas. I've also just finished updating the Dark Arts Books website with the table of contents and ordering info for Waiting for October; I hope you'll take a look and consider checking out a copy of the book! There are some stories in this collection that will haunt you for days!
