Glad to hear that it's just a hoax!

here is a link to the only article I could actually find on it. I don't understand how people think this is funny... whatever, don't believe everything you read on the internet http://en.mediamass.net/people/stephe...
For some reason I was pretty sure it was a hoax - Abe Vigoda, who actually died this week, had been the victim of several such hoaxes - but I couldn't be happier to get the official word that one of my favorite writers is definitely alive and certainly kicking!
I love Stephen King, not just for his writing, but also his political views. The world would be less without him. Have been loving "Haven" got to watch it lately on Netflix. Read his books for years. I am glad that this is a hoax. The world has lost some incredible people in the last little while and I am glad he is not one of them.
Am so glad this was fake. I dont see what thrill it is to do something like this. But hey Mr. KING could turn this in to a good book.
Of course I didn't ever believe that because there would have been so much more of an outpouring of hysteria, more news about it and the details everywhere you looked,and I never believe everything I read on the internet as a rule. Long live the" KING!"My very first author of adult novels, which I started reading at 9 years old,and I am now in the vicinity of my late 30's.
I had not heard the news of his supposed passing until this post, but it is good to know he is still with us and hopefully will be for some time to come. That is, unless there is a pet cemetery near his home that no one has told us about, in which case this whole dead but not really dead story might actually have me a bit nervous.
Dear Mr. King,
Oh! How sad for that jealous person(s) that started that rumor! Just think of this, God LOVES your novels! Why, He has an entire library with every single book, essay, opinion you've ever written - including that first story written and read by your "mom". Yep! He was there reading over your mom's shoulder. Why, He's even started a whole new shelf in anticipation for your next 100 years (give or take a few years) of scary writing! Yes....you...do...scare...Him...
Lighter note, love your writing! I remain,
Sincerely,
Norma Iris

what?! thank God I haven't read any of that, are people stupid or what? what's the point in making up that kind of things?
:( awww I'm glad, I'd be really sad if he really did die!
I hope he lives a long and healthy life

This is the beginning of his new novel isn't it? He's writing himself as something grander than Pennywise and more scary than Cujo. Come on, Mr. King, you and I both know what's going on here.
Perhaps too many people believe what they read on Facebook and the internet without checking the facts. ; )

Stephen King has been my favorite author since I was 11 years old (seriously, I read my first Stephen King book in 2nd grade, but it took a year or so to really get serious). I've never cared much about famous people or celebrities, but Stephen King operates on a whole other level in my mind. I want to destroy whoever started this hoax.
Just saw some books on Amazon supposedly by Steven King, but its a different Stephen King. Whats up with that?
I can't even imagine a world without Stephen. He has given me such delight and pleasure in my lifetime. He is one of those special people that I feel like I owe something to, and wish there were some way to repay him for the gift of himself.
I read my first Stephen King book, The Shining this year and was IN LOVE with every word, sentence, paragraph, page, and chapter. It was so freaking GREAT! And by the way the movie is entertaining, but has almost nothing to do with the book :-/
The king can never die! He draws eternal youth from the jar with the little boy heart on his desk... :D

And by the way the movie is entertaining,..."Ok, i assume you saw the one with jack nicholson? yes it's good, but you gotta watch the made-for-tv movie version with Steven Weber. It's sooo much truer to the book, especially the characters. Jack Nicholson acts like a psycho from the beginning, but Steve portrays the loving dad (just like in the book) whose previously buried dark side emerges once again due to the hotel's influences, If you prefer (like i do) for movie plots to stay true to the book, you should definitely check out this version of The Shining!
