AND SO THIS IS NEW YEAR’S, but what have you done? Another year older… (apologies to John Lennon!) 2025 was an exhausting year for me, both emotionally and logistically! I did 16 book-related signings and appearances, which kept my calendar busy, not to mention my usual spring and fall pinball…
THIS IS MY “What I Did On My Summer Vacation” blog, edition 2025! This year, the Eversons did not plan a big trip (like last year to NYC) but I did have an action-packed week at the end of June with two concerts, a Shakespeare in the park performance and…
SOMEHOW, IT’S ALREADY been a week since I was in Pennsylvania for the Dark Drafts Festival at Bube’s Brewery. Jan. 24-26, 2025 was really a weekend that I will remember forever because it was an adventure all around. Tiffany Koplin from the Facebook Books of Horror group encouraged me to…
I’M IN A NEW YORK STATE OF MIND! We got home early this morning (3:30 a.m.!) from the first Everson family vacation in six years and we had a blast. We celebrated Shaun’s 19th birthday in NYC, and called it an early wedding anniversary celeb to boot. In the five…
I TURNED 53 just over a week ago. Not sure how that happened. Seems like I was just 35. I had to be away from home this year — I had a four-day business trip to Las Vegas that meant I was working for 12 hours on “the day.” I’m…
I HAVE WANTED to go to the Carolinas for over 30 years. My wife Geri and I have talked about going for most of that time. George, one of my best friends in college, had planned to drive there with me over our winter break during my junior or senior…
A WEEK AGO at this time, I was having dinner in New York City with my new publisher, Nick Wells, my editor Don D’Auria, and three of my favorite fellow authors — Tim Waggoner, Jonathan Janz and Hunter Shea. We had all flown in to New York to take part…
THIS HAS BEEN a crazy couple of weeks! Two weekends ago, I spent playing pinball with my son and friends in Michigan… and then, last weekend I spent working at a convention center in New York for my dayjob. In between? I signed a contract for my 11th novel, finished…
SO LAST WEEKEND, I got home late Saturday night from a work trip to Vegas. But I didn’t stay put for long. After a one-day rest, on Monday, I rented an SUV and drove four hours to Ann Arbor, Michigan. The reason? Meteor. Meteor is a pinball table that I’ve…
I HAD TO GO to Las Vegas for a couple days this week to work at a meeting for my dayjob. I’m not a gambler, so Vegas doesn’t hold the allure for me that it does for many, but it is a fun place to wander around in. You can’t…
