On the heels of that story about Stephen King, one weary night, autographing his novels in his own blood, Carolyn Kellogg of the LA Times’ Jacket Copy has a fun post about favorite signed books. She shared one of her own treasures, and invited Saïd Sayrafiezadeh, Nam Le, Claire Zulkey, Jami Attenberg, Anne [...]

On Tuesday evening I spent a delightful hour at Hampton* Library, at a glamorous event organised by CrimeSquad, a website that, not coincidentally, turns out to be run from a location very near by. The event was an interview and discussion with authors Meg Gardiner and Peter Robinson: the fire and ice of the crime-fiction world? Both authors, with deceptive ease, spoke about their crime-writing careers,...

Barbie just introduced me to N., a Stephen King story, about a psychiatrist and his patient, who might be saving the world or just garden-variety insane. The story is intriguing and it’s been turned into a series of short, comic book-style videos (adapted by one of the Eli Stone guys, too). It’s completely addictive, each segment is so short that you’re left panting to see what happens next. Warning:...

I was finishing up my freshman year at Ohio University when some upstart writer-director named Frank Darabont brought Hollywood to my home state for an adaptation of Stephen King's beloved short story, "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption". While I'm still kicking myself for not chasing down even a menial gig on the production, I know a few folks who worked on the picture, and they're justifiably...

I should have had a book review for you today, but I haven’t finished reading Communication Skills for Project and Programme Managers. I’ve been finding it hard to put down Stephen King’s La Ligne Verte (The Green Mile). It’s the longest thing I’ve ever attempted in French, the first Stephen King I’ve ever read, and [...]

Eventually, I get stuff to Andrew and we start working together to hammer out the final draft, but I write my first draft with the door closed, as Stephen King advises, and it can be a lonely time, with Self Doubt and the Inner Critic dropping in uninvited and unannounced from time to time to mess with me before the real fun starts. ... It's tremendously reassuring to know that some obstacle I'm struggling...

I am not much of a fan of horror fiction. I do not read Stephen King. When I am in the mood for a mix of something scary stupid however, I need only open the pages of the Wall Street Journal and read the editorials and opinions. One of today's Journal horror stories is an op-ed by Bernie Marcus, the founder of Home Depot, in which he rails against a proposed piece of legislation called the Employee...
