Welcome to the home page of John Bushore, three
time winner of the James Award and voted among the "Top Ten" internet authors for 2004. This site will keep you up-to-date on where my stories and poems are appearing. Also, be sure to visit my site for kids, "MonkeyJohn-dot-banana"
It's official. Sams Dot Publishing has announced in the current Expressions Newsletter that my novel, FRIENDS IN DARK PLACES,
is scheduled for release Oct. 1, 2006. I've seen the cover art and it's awesome. I won't post it here, though, you'll have to come to Sam's Dot to see it after it comes out.
I've been trying to put the cover art for FRIENDS IN DARK PLACES up on this site, but having technical difficulties. Hope to have it here, or at least a link to it, soon.
Sam's Dot Publishing has announced - Mar 2 in their Expressions Newsletter - that my short story, RENDER UNTO KARAK, has won a 2005 James Award in the short story cagegory.
What travels through space in the rocket ship Black Banana and loves to eat ice cream? Monkey John's "The Space-Monkey Adventures" is now appearing as a serial in Beyond Centauri, with an awesome new "full-size" format. Do yourself and your kids a favor; subscribe today.
"Render Unto Karak" also got a "top ten" finish in the short story category of the 2005 Preditors and Editors Poll.
