Richard Laymon

Richard Laymon, Bram Stoker Award winning American author, (1947-2001)

"If you've missed Laymon, you've missed a treat." --Stephen King

Richard Laymon wrote disturbing, slightly sick and perhaps a bit perverted horror stories. He always took his stories a bit darker and further than Stephen King. He was never afraid of going for the gross-out.
Stephen King, Dean Koontz and Bentley Little were all Laymon fans.
Due to trouble with editors (censorship) in the U.S.A., his work is better known in Europe, Australia and the rest of the world, where his work is published in 15 languages.
Luckily for his American fans, many of Laymon's books are being restored to their original uncut form.

"No one writes like Laymon, and you're going to have a good time with anything he writes." --Dean Koontz

"One of horror's rarest talents" -- Publishers Weekly

An International Bestselling Author, Richard Laymon writes awesome horror stories such as "Beast House", "Darkness, Tell Us," and "The Traveling Vampire Show" and "the Woods are Dark."

Layma

The most beautiful girl there ever was. You wouldn't think a Layma would be beautiful but when you meet them, you are left speechless. You wonder..why aren't there more Laymas. But that's because they are rare. They have long, dark hair like a brunette Rapunzul. Laymas are very fiesty. They aren't those girls that laugh at all your lame jokes. They are honest and won't let anyone treat them like a girly girl. They are independent and sincere and strong feminists. They are a bit addicted to their devices because everyone around them can't keep them interested long enough. Want their attention? Better have interesting conversation topics prepared. You don't deserve a Layma so if you meet one, you better treat them like a a King, cause Queens come second.

Have you met Layma? Yeah. Once you do, you can't get them out of your head.

in layman's terms

Easily understandable; not in complicated technical jargon.

Javier: "What'd you do last night, dude? I didn't see you at Jose's big party. There were mad smokin' chicks there man."
Pedro: "Well, my amicable acquaintance, I engaged in an act of copulation with your maternal entity in which I inserted my genitalia into her rectal cavity. The aforementioned encounter was extremely pleasurable to both parties involved."
Javier: "What?"
Pedro: "In layman's terms, 'Dude,I banged your mom indabutt, and it was reeeeeal gooooood.'"
Javier: "WHAT THE FUCK? You're dead, essay!"
