Authors

Ayn Rand. The biggest single influence on the way I think. An extremely important philosopher.

Clive Barker. His Books of Blood are amazing-filled with creative and goulish stories-you would make a mistake in not picking them up!

I haven’t read the rest of the Dune novels. I’m not sure I want to, but the first one, by Frank Herbert, is one of the best books I’ve ever read.

George Orwell. If you haven’t read 1984, you should kill yourself now!

H.P. Lovecraft. My single favorite writer. A genius with the word, and true inspiration for generations of horror writers to come.

John Steinbeck may not write the kind of fiction I normally read, but his style of telling a story is a huge influence on the way I write.

Neal Stephenson. I love this guys early cyberpunk work.

Neil Gaiman. i was always a fan of The sandman, but i think he really blossomed when he started writing horror novels.

Groundbreaking, and inpirational author, Philip K Dick.

Richard Matheson. Legendary horror author.

William Gibson. Creater of cyberpunk, and one of my early favorites!

Trajically underrated death metal band BoltThrower, and one of my all time favorites.

Guitar master Chuck’s brilliant death metal band named simply Death.
