With THE TROUBLESOME AMPUTEE John Edward Lawson uses the theme of limb removal as a starting point in this rich, resonant collection of verse. Armed with bracingly dark imagery and an unflinching eye, Lawson wields his words like a blade, offering...

Hey nerd! I was hoping to see you at Horrorfind back in September but alas, you were nowhere to be found. Any chance you'll make it to Rock & Shock?
Thanks for being my friend. I was just in DC for The RWA National. It's a great place. Your books look good and scarey...perfect for fall reading.
I'm still outside your window... I'm just broadening my on-line horizons.I was glad to find you on here too. I like to give props to the authors I really enjoy!
Hello, John.My new book, The 9 Ghosts of Samen's Bane, is available now at amazon.com and target.com. Have a great day.
The 9 Ghosts of Samen's Bane
Hey, J.E.!Sorry I haven't finished your book yet -- but I'm working on it... I just can't get a minute to myself these days! I cannot WAIT to get some beach-read time in this year (ANY beach... even RADIATION beach, at this point)! LOL

Thanks for adding me. The first chapters of Avenging Autumn and The Wintermen are on my profile now.
How do you know that you are in the year 2008?چه جوری میفهمی که الان در سال 2008 هستی؟؟
--------------------------------------------------------
1) You find out that your family that is not more than 3 people have 4 or 5 mobile telephone numbers.
یهو نگاه میکنی میبینی خانواده ات که 3 نفر بیشتر نیستن ؛ 4 یا 5 خط موبایل دارن
--------------------------------------------------------
2) You send an Email to a work colleague even though he/she is sitting at a desk right next to yours.
واسه همکارت ایمیل میفرستی در حالی که میز بغل دستی تو نشسته
--------------------------------------------------------
3) Your relationship with family members and friends that have no Email gets worse and you hardly contact them.
رابطه ات با اقوام و دوستانی که آدرس ایمیل ندارن رو به وخامت میره و تو به سختی میتونی باهاشون ارتباط داشته باشی
--------------------------------------------------------
4) You park your car outside your house then use your mobile to phone the house to ask for assistance with carrying the shopping in.
شما ماشینتون رو جلوی خونه تون پارک میکنین ..بعدش موبایلتون رو در میارین و به خونه زنگ میزنین که بیان کمک و چیزایی که خریدین رو از ماشین پیاده کنن .
--------------------------------------------------------
5) Every TV advert has an internet address at the bottom of the screen..
هر آگهی تلویزیونی یه آدرس اینترنتی هم زیرش داره
--------------------------------------------------------
6) Leaving the house without taking your mobile phone with you makes you really stress and rush back to pick it up even though you managed to live without one for 20 or 30 years of your life.
وقتی خونه رو بدون همراه داشتن موبایلتون ترک میکنین باعث میشه استرس تمام وجودتون رو بگیره و دوباره با عجله برگردین خونه تا ورش دارین در حالی که قبلا بدون موبایل 20-30 سال از عمرتون رو گذروندین و بدون هیچ مشکلی
--------------------------------------------------------
8) As soon as you wake up in the morning you check the internet even before you have your coffee.
صبحها قبل از خوردن چایی و قهوه تون تا بلند میشین اولین کاری که میکنین سر زدن به اینترنت هست
--------------------------------------------------------
9) You are now reading this, smiling and shaking your head.
شما الان در حالی که این ایمیل رو میخونین سرتون رو تکون میدین و لبخند میزنین ...
--------------------------------------------------------
10) You are so busy reading this that you didn’t even notice that this list has no number 7.
و این قدر سرگرم خوندن این ایمیل بودین که حتی توجه نکردین که این لیست شماره 7 نداشت ..
--------------------------------------------------------
11) You went back up to check that there is no number 7.
شما دوباره برگشتین تا چک کنین که شماره 7 رو داشته یا نه؟
--------------------------------------------------------
12) I am sure if you scrolled up that you will find number 7, its just that you didn’t notice it.
و من مطمئنم که اگه شما دوباره به بالا برگردین حتما شماره 7 رو پیدا میکنین ...این مال اینه که شما بهش توجه نکردین
--------------------------------------------------------
13) You scrolled up again but you did not find number 7. I am making fun of you of course, this goes to show that you have no trust in yourself and that you believe anything said to you.
شما دوباره بر میگردین بالا ولی باز هم شماره 7 رو پیدا نمیکنین .. البته که من با شما شوخی کردم و این نشون میده که شما به خودتون هم اعتماد نمیکنین و هرچی بقیه بگن باور میکنین

John, thanks so much for the invitation. You have a provactive line-up of books. I'm especially intrigued by A Child's Guide to Death.
Thanks for adding me to your friends, John. It's great to meet an editor who must understand the author's viewpoint too - cause he's been there!Dianne Ascroft,

Aha,You're the guy from Raw Dog Press that I was advised to contact regarding a number of my projects. I DO have a publisher for SOME of my crime thrillers but thus far, no takers on the horror and science fiction.
Thanks for the friendship on Goodreads and drop me a line here or on corkfilms@hotmail.com

Thanks for being my goodreads buddy, John! My new romantic suspense, The Twist is a Bookstrand #1 Bestseller! A story of mind-bending control and unnerving metamorphosis, The Twist unravels the tale of a hotshot consultant as he struggles to foil a plot to steal $12 million and to rescue the feisty, female scientist who has stolen his heart.
