Dear Mr. King

I know that you won't read this but it is more or less a gesture for my own growth.

I've found my Library Policeman

After 35 years I've begun to forgive him

Things are starting to turn

I've never known that I could feel this free.

Thank you my friend for writing your stories.

I don't think that you understand the gift that you've given me.

@PrinceOfCicero idk I thought 1!/22/63 was amazing. Much better than indy 4 or diary/survival of the dead

[HaloStarbucks]

I am so PSYCHED about this book!!!

If you want to hear the 10 minute passage he read back in Sept (different passage) go here v=1ErlhXTUFeI

I disagree about him being all washed up. I think "Duma Key" is one of the best books he has ever written.

I was there for this speech, and he was awesome.

[Newworldfortomorrow]

I like his stories, not the endings (they are mostly always shit really) but I hate his writing style, way too much descriptive writing

[PrinceOfCicero]

King is all done--has been for over 25 years. And, this is the last pathetic gasp.

Didn't he learn anything from George Lucas, or George A Romero?

[Scix]

What's that last word? "She was the--" worst? first?

[uncageXtheXcolours]

Holy shit, if this is only the first chapter I can't imagine how amazing the rest is going to be!!!!

Stephen King - The Walmart of Horror. Cheap writing you forget minutes after reading. Once great, now just a "product" put out a few times a year to appease fans and people who read at a grade 5 level. Sort of sad... he has become the very ghosts and ghouls he wrote about. Childhood fright that barely entertain adults these days. Good thing greater writers today can be found. Too bad so many don't go looking for them and instead grab King's latest pulp offering on sale, at Walmart.
