A resident of North Carolina's Outer Banks, A.P. searches for that unique element that twists the everyday commonplace into the weird. When he's not writing fiction he composes music, dabbles in animation, and muses about theology and mind-hacking, all while watching way too many online movies.

From beginning to end the presentation is perfect, from the introductions (In which...), to the art, to the masterfully told stories. It has the genuine feel of something quite nostalgic, like you're sitting around an old tube radio listening to stori ...more

Simply one of the best collections I've read in years. Jon has reached into the primeval brain and dragged up nightmares I'm sure more than a few of us share. How he takes such surreal, nonsensical moments and turns them into tangible horrors without ...more

A.P. Sessler and 4 other people liked Donna Backshall's review of The Stain in the Stairwell: "The Stain in the Stairwell started out with a few editing issues, but quickly cleaned up into something that exceeded my expectations. This short story is a creeper, and it gets under your skin in a truly masterful way. It's hard to find great shorts" Read more of this review »

A.P. Sessler and 1 other person liked Darrell Grizzle's review of The Stain in the Stairwell: "A short horror story about a sentient stain (a ghost?) on the wall of an inner city apartment building. The story is well-written and gets progressively creepier as it goes along. Sessler does a great job of capturing the fears of childhood. "
