Kitaplar
Pretty much anything by Tolkien, Anne Rice, Anne McCaffrey, Laurell K. Hamilton, James Rollins and Stephen King. I also adore the Thieves World sci-fi/fantasy series, Logan's World (sequel to Logan's Run) and the Hot Blood horror anthology. Most of my reading leans towards sci-fi/fantasy, horror or history-based thrillers.

My gramma and mom, first and foremost, and all those who do what's right instead of just what's easy.
My name is Michelle Snow and I'm a freelance journalist - web designer - photographer who loves to travel. Also rating high on my interest meter are family, friends, animals, music, movies and computers.
I always try to give second chances but will never give a third. I can handle just about anything but a person who lies to me. Also not very big on cruelty or bigotry of any kind.
I believe we were put on this earth as unique individuals for a reason and that reason isn't to bomb the hell out of each other. Though I will agree there are some people that need a really good spanking.
I believe age is just a number and I'm on a first name basis with my inner child. So play nice or she may throw a tantrum and call you a doodie-head. :p
I'll also never turn down a good tequila...ask me nicely and I may share my patented recipe for Chelle's Sit-down-ritas (bribe me and I may even share the story of why they're called that).
I'm currently the feature writer for Budget Travel at Suite101.com (as well as a contributor-at-large for the site) and the editor/writer for Las Vegas Logue. I'm also a regular contributor to Metroblogging Orlando. Upcoming projects include the soon-to-be-live Athena Guides. As if that's not enough, I'm the author of several travel guidebooks.
If you'd like to know more, check out my regular blog Zengrrl.com or my business site MrShMedia.com, where you'll find links to more of my writing, my photo portfolio and my web portfolio. I also play around with photography and you can view those shots at my Flickr account.
I'm open to job offers for writing, photography or web and graphic design. But I will NOT use my connections to write gossip or slander for any entertainment website, no matter what the salary. I prefer to deal with fact-based writing, thanks! :)
This layout was designed by me, so please don't steal it. Thanks! :)

Kimle tanışmak isterim:
In general, I'm here to make friends (any Browncoats out there?) and possibly network with like-minded people. I like intelligent people with a great sense of humor who see the adventure in life and aren't afraid of it.
But please don't even THINK of contacting me if you tYpE lIkE tHiS or type all in IM speak. If it hurts my eyes to read it, I will hit delete.
I will also hit delete if you're just trying to sell me a home-marketing/ real estate job or some other crap like that. Take your spam and hit the road; this isn't a friendly way-station for you.
I'm also not interested in cyber pick-ups, though I am currently looking for part-time boy toys. Applications will only be accepted in the form of interpretive dance.

A Few Notes About Leaving Me Comments:
I'm pretty lenient about comments, but if all you're doing is advertising something for sale or just slapping a banner or video up, it's probably going to get deleted. I love hearing from all my friends, but please speak to me and don't just use me to sell your product.
I also will delete any image larger than 400 pixels in width, because it distorts my profile layout. See? Not so bad. ;)

Ok, so how cool does this trailer for the upcoming 2012 movie look??
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."
Hi Zengrrl, Heaven & Earth is on hiatus now as Stuart Smith and Richie Onori have joined forces with bassist Steve Priest to reform "Sweet". For those of you unfamiliar with the band, Sweet originally formed in the early 70s and went on to sell over 40,000,000 albums with 11 International Top Ten Hits such as "Ballroom Blitz", "Little Willy", "Love is Like Oxygen", "Fox on the Run", "Teenage Rampage", "Action", "Blockbuster", "Hellraiser" and many others.
This reincarnation of the band reformed last year, playing their first show in June, and went on to play festivals throughout Canada and the States and had played to over 300,000 people before the year was out. During this tour last year they recorded a live CD available on Amazon entitled "Sweet, Live in America" which has received rave reviews - pick up a copy and please Add Sweet As Your Friend On Myspace!

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
