Dear Me. A letter to my sixteen-year-old-self

Dear Me. A letter to my sixteen-year-old-self is a collection of letters written by famous people (King, Hugh Jackman, Alan Rickman, James Woods and many more), imaginary sent to themselves when they were only sixteen. Book is edited by Joseph Galliano and has a foreword by J.K.Rowling. It'll be published next october 25th by Atria Books.

The cover:

Is there any excerpts available?

According to one reader, King writes, "Just five words: stay away from recreational drugs."

The letter is one page and he focuses on that sentence particulary.

Is this a revised edition? It says the book is published here (different foreword and with mention of King) in 2009:

I don't know. King says in his letter that it's 2010, and that edition is from 2009, so it might be different.

I didn't find any mention of King in the 2009 version.

I did see this notice somewhere this morning, but quickly as i thought it wasnt related to King. Thanks for the heads up guys !
