Suzie Ellis Mr King, I have a question I would like to present to you, but I'm not sure of the best way to try and contact you. It is regarding copyright and a (very) small business name.
Thank you so much! I have been a fan for about 40 years!

David Been a follower of Stephen King since I saw Carrie in 1976. Hooked on his books since. Disclaimer: Have not read all. :) Favorite recent was the Institute, all time favorite is....wait for it....The Stand ( did that surprise you?) LOL

Looking forward to Billy Summers, sounds different. Colorado Kid different.

Eric Shipp Mr. King you'e managed in your books like the shining and doctor sleep. Help me face my past with a drunken bastard of a father. Hes gone but i can still feel him. I know those books are fiction, but i felt a closeness to danny that i have not felt often before or since. Billy Summers sounds amazing and i love a bit of "true crime" mixed in my horror. Also i loved the short story "The CO kid" so i look forward to the twists and turns and going down the rabbit hole again

Marie The Stand is my favorite as well.


message 7: by Eric Shipp (new)

Eric Shipp The stand is great


message 8: by Sandy (new)

Sandy  Kristal (Groyer) I have loved almost ALL King's books since I was old enought to climb under the bed. Nothing like a good King novel with small print and that super fast pace which I skim through like a milennial through her heritage.

Patricia Levack Stephen King, I have purchased all your hard cover books and most of the ones that are only available in soft covers. I am just wondering why Canadians can’t enter any of your giveaway contest? You have many loyal Canadians fans.
