    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."

    Hello, MySpace family!  I don't check MySpace often anymore---as you can see, it looks very much like a marketplace and not at all like a place to hang out with friends and readers---so I have started using Facebook now.  Please friend me on Facebook or join my Facebook fan page if you want to keep up with me.  (But I do not allow anyone to post ads on my Facebook Wall.)  Maybe I'm too boring, but I'm not attracted to the bright colors and flashing lights on MySpace.  Sorry I've been so out of touch!

    Good Morning to you...

    Just thought I'd peek in to say hello,
    and wish you a pleasant, productive,
    smooth-flowing day. Be safe & enjoy...

    I RODE DOWN THE LONELY HI-WAY
    With the top down, the sounds of the ocean waves mixed with the soul of my 8 track player
    Michael Jackson crooned, “I Wanna Be Where You Are”
    My Blues bled into the dark sky
    My eyes were on the road but, I see her at every mile marker, and with every star that sparkled above
    I pushed on the gas as my heart raced
    Where am I going?
    Anywhere she might be
    Teasing my soul hoping she was headed to me
    Whoooo… I took that corner too fast
    Slow down and live with the memories
    My 8 track player switches songs and my mind flips and trips as
    Michael Jackson sings, I Wonder Who Lovin.. You
    I fight the winds from blowing me over into on coming traffic
    I fight my heart and mind and stay focused as push buttons on the 8 track, The Jackson 5 sing, “The Love You Save May Be Your Own”
    I pass slow traffic and get on the straight and narrow and reminisce
    Like when we were lovers in the night
    She is sitting on my love
    Her hands spread on my chest
    Her lips and eyes smile
    Feeling my love
    We were cruising after we had climbed a mountain
    I’m watching her mountains rise and fall, and drip on me
    She and I create streams that lead to her river
    I hold on to her firmly
    I sing along with Michael Jackson, “Never Can Say Goodbye”
    Whoooo… I almost ran off the road
    I’m squeezing the driving wheel with all my might; my hands are numb
    I look to the passage seat
    I’m alone on this lonely hi-fi-hi-way
    I check my seat belt, adjust my mirror, and try to adjust to the fact…she is gone
    I turn the 8 track up, and hit repeat… and again
    Little Michael Jackson sings, “I wanna Be Where You Are”
    I hit the gas and head home

    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
