Game Geek Stuff:
White Wolf Game Studios White Wolf's website. Find all your World of Darkness love right here.
Ex Libris Nocturnis You want White Wolf game materials? Want to discuss the Hunter metaplot, and why God45 was seen holding hands with the Tzimisce Voivode Sascha Vykos down on the Ocean City boardwalk? Nocturnis is your place. Great fun, great food, great World of Darknessy goodness. (Oh, and I used to be one of the line editors there, appropriately enough, for Hunter.)
Team Xbox I am an Xbox whore. I love my bulky box, I adore the clunky controller (and often can be seen cuddling it next to my tummy while I sleep), I love all the games I own. This site is really the best place to check out Xbox-related goodies. Plus, it's the official forum for the Hunter: the Reckoning Xbox game by Interplay. Check it out.
Other Writers:
Robert R. McCammon Okay. If you've never read anything by McCammon, twist your nipple sharply to the right until your eyes water and you feel sufficiently punished. Then go out and buy everything you can of his - specifically Swan Song, Boy's Life, Gone South, Mine, Wolf's Hour, and Stinger. Read them. Love them. Then revel in the raw joy that he decided to revoke his retirement from 1993 and will have his new book, Speaks the Nightbird, hitting shelves in September of this year. I am moist. (Addendum to this: I'm now referenced on his site due to the fact I wrote a review on Entertainment Geekly about his newest book. I am Jesus, hear me roar.)
Joe R. Lansdale Champion Joe is a sick, twisted Texan ape. It's real down-home perversity, a genre-bending bibliography that has be read to be believed.
Christopher Moore This is a man who writes books with titles like Island of the Sequined Love Nun and The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove. He is hilarity personified. If you don't read his books, you are dumb. Sorry to make that snap judgment, but it's true, and I like spreading the truth on the world like jam on bread. Deal with it. His newest book, Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Childhood Pal of Jesus, is a classic retelling of the life story of Jesus in the eyes of his buddy, Biff, who got written out of the Gospels. It features Jesus learning Kung Fu and meeting the Yeti. It's classic.
Justin Achilli's Livejournal Justin Achilli is the game developer for Vampire: the Masquerade at White Wolf. This is his LiveJournal site. It's a bizarre romp through his diseased mind. And it's also righteously funny. It's one of the few places I can go for a consistent gut-laugh that makes me bleed from the eyes and mouth. It sounds bad. It's not.
Patrick O'Duffy's Livejournal A little more legitimate and "real world" (no, I don't mean MTV's whore's parade of a TV show) than Achilli's, this Livejournal is for illustrious game writer Patrick O'Duffy. Hilarious site, filled with good rants. And his superhero name is Doc Redfern. Go. Read. Love.
Douglas Clegg Clegg is probably the horror novelist love child of Robert McCammon and Clive Barker. He's good. And he's a nice guy, to boot.
Miscellaneous Debris:
James J. Frazier Check out this art. It's the real deal. It tingles me in all my pink parts. Or something like that. Anyway, you want evocative, you get evocative by going here and checking this stuff out.
The Sex Album C'mon. Click it. Do it. Love it. Listen to the music made from the sound of sex, of sweet perversion, of nipple twists and leather slaps. Get in there, get dirty, let the auralgasm shake your braincase.
Fortean Times Here's a magazine (primarily in print, but the website's cool) devoted to the weirder aspects of the news. Some of it is legit but odd ("Man Cuts Off Own Head With Saw," or "Romania Emerges as Nexus of Cybercrime") and some of it is just plain out of sight ("Ghost Destroys Tokyo With Giant Hammer," or "Sasquatch Seen Eating Grilled Cheese in Des Moines"). And yes, I just made those headlines up. Well, except for the Romainia one, that I got from Yahoo. Shut up.
The Onion If you don't know about The Onion by now, I really can't help you. You're lost to me. Maybe you can found, but no promises. It's a mockup newspaper, it's a total gem every week, they have books out you can buy. Updated every Wednesday.
