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."

Been a while since I've checked in with you! Hope all is going well. Your myspace page says you're in a relationship....hope all is going well there. My son Eddie graduated in May in CTVA from Cal State Northridge & is working with a group called Stardum Entertaiment. Their website should be up sometime soon. He's also still working at the House of Blues & at Pali House Holloway Hotel as a security guard...gotta pay off those student loans, you know?
Hope everything is well with you. Any more movies you're in coming out anytime soon? I hope you have a nice Thanksgiving. Ours will be a bit sad because my Father-in-Law passed away last Thursday. It's been a whirlwind week for us here is Citrus Heights! Hugs, Kasey
