a couple years back i had a huge pile of paperbacks King books, and i needed to make room, so i drew cartoons inside them all and gave them away, but not before taking pictures of each one. my hope was that King fans would start discovering them and that eventually King would see one, well it happened a lot faster then a thought, about 3 months,when King tweeted my cartoon, his caption said " courtesy of Josh Boone" and i can explain that, Josh Boone is a movie director, in fact he is working on LISEYS STORY among others, Stephen King had a small role in his first film ( well, his voice did, over a phone) it was Josh Boone who saw my cartoon being tossed around online and forwarded it to King. silly of me not to sign the picture before taking the picture, but thats ok i got tons of pictures of the cartoon as i drew it from pencils to color anyway here is the cartoon 'found inside a copy of SALEMS LOT" many more pics to follow

That's pretty cool :thumbsup:

The picture isn't showing up for me, maybe because you're linking to a page and not a picture? But the link works just fine.
