The Official Shane Ryan Staley
F.A.Q. Results:

Q: When did you start writing?
A: In the womb. I had long fingernails and frequently scratched on the walls. I attempted to finish my first story there before I was evicted.

Q: Why do you write such extreme fiction?
A: I have an extreme Muse.

Q: Are you possessed by Satan?
A: Yes, especially before my first cup of coffee each morning.

Q: Why do you hate Pat Robertson and the Christian Coalition so much?
A: (A) Because he's a senile idiot. (B) Because they're a bunch of weak-minded, brain-washed morons who can't think for themselves and are led by a senile idiot.

Q: Did you write "Swan Lake" because you hate the disabled?
A: No, but I hate people who ask me if I hate the disabled. I hate them so much I want to disable them and then laugh at their disability.

Q: Can you describe your Muse?
A: Six inches tall and hairy with big, sharp teeth and it's always smiling. About what, you can never quite tell.

Q: How much hate mail do you get during the year?
A: I'm not sure. I have 'Hate Mail Editors' that go through the slush pile. If anything meets their criteria for coherency and mastery of the English language, they pass it along to me. So far, I have yet to get a single letter, which leads me to believe that only hacks and idiots send me hate mail.

Q: Any influences that have helped shape your style of fiction?
A: Caffeine, CNN and Pornos.

Q: What are you hoping to achieve with Project Corrosion?
A: The downfall of civilization as we know it. Of course, I set small goals at first and usually work up from there.

Q: Do you believe in a higher power?
A: Nuclear fusion and wind have come a long way and have potential. Harvesting the sun's energy might be the answer. But then, again, static electricity is underrated, in my opinion.

Q: What is your strangest experience with a fan?
A: Probably the time I walked out of my bathroom naked and ran right into one in my living room. Fortunately, it was an oscillating one. Unfortunately the wire mesh guard was off. Luckily, the damage was minimal enough for re-attachment.

Q: Do you worship the devil?
A: Every other weekend and on holidays.

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

Death Metal by Armand Rosamilia {Sam's Dot Publishing}

www. genremall. com/fictionr. htm#deathmetal

Death Metal is a dark fantasy/horror novella published in trade paperback format.

No one had ever connected Daniel as the brains behind seven brutal concept albums about Satanism and the dark figure Natas, but when a teenager quotes lyrics from his literary work, Daniel fears his 10-year old daughter, Missy, is in trouble. His fears are founded when she is kidnapped. The kidnappers want Daniel to complete the last three albums for his former band--and return him to the demons he had tried to escape. Daniel can save her, but can he save himself?

"Rosamilia jams the E-major of dark crime in Death Metal. That scream you hear is the electric-soaked feedback of scorching prose." ~ Scott Nicholson, author of Scattered Ashes and multiple Stoker winner

Death Metal is a sharply written tale that starts quick and works its way to an edge-of-the seat ending you won't forget. It's one of those stories you just can't stop reading. Bravo! Or should I say Rock and Roll! ~ Laura J. Underwood, Author of The King's Wind and The Green Women

With Death Metal, Rosamilia keeps you anxious to turn each page, and leaves you wanting more. A spectacular read that will not disappoint. ~ C. S. Johnson, author of The Watching

Hey Shane -

Hope all's well with you! I'm in the midst of spreading the word about my new fiction collection, NEEDLES & SINS, so I hope you'll pass this on to your readers:

To celebrate the release of my new horror/dark fantasy short fiction collection NEEDLES & SINS, you can read the title story of the collection online. I've posted the "Needles & Sins," a dark vignette about the immortality of sin, on my website as a sample of the book. Here's the teaser the publisher posted about the book's stories:

Roses scented with bitter deception, Oracles redolent in hidden redemption, a body-mod-obsessed ingenue with an amputee fetish and a demon gone soft on a bitter angel. Dreamcatchers, an alternate Nativity with a pimp God and a non-compliant Mary, Stupid Bitch the three-legged cat and the secret explanation of how Germany almost won the war with the devil on their side. These are just a few of the provocative sets in these 19 stories rife with "Needles & Sins"...


I hope you'll check out the story and the book; I think NEEDLES & SINS includes some of the best short stories I've written over the past decade.

Read "Needles & Sins"
