Sean M. asked Scott Hawkins:

I just got your book and I cannot wait to give it a go! Finishing up The Shining then on to Mount Char! I have recently been getting back into reading as sort of a stress relief fix. I feel like taking a break from reality and diving deep into the minds of you crazy authors helps! Thank you for helping me escape the clutches of stress and anxiety by creating a world where I can turn that all off! how many dogs?

Scott Hawkins Hey Sean,

I'm a huge Stephen King fan, and The Shining is one of my all-time favorites. I've read it probably fifty times. You, my friend, are in for a treat. Definitely check out The Stand and Salem's Lot as well.

We've got six dogs at the moment. We lost Kinsie not long ago to a combination of kidney failure and old age. It always sucks, but that one damn near killed me. She and I had been joined at the hip for years.

Actual Thane (he had a cameo in the book) is doing fine health-wise but continues to be kinda dumb.

Bon appetit!
