Life is a garden...dig it!
...and Tommy tripped over a copy of UNDER THE DOME that had been thrown into the cellar by his !!EVIL!! step nephew twice removed on his father's aunt's cousin's side, who always said "Watch out that you don't trip over a copy of UNDER THE DOME when you're 'a fetchin that thar wood in that thar cellar, BOY!!!" (She [after the botched gender change operation] had said thisa hear saying so many times it was etched into the neurons of Tommy's young, very easily imprinted brain and and and, where the f**k was I anyway? Oh yeah, Tommy bashed that impressionable young brain out of his very own SKULL and it slithered under the furnace to become - another IT!!!!!!!

I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

Hilarious!!!
I think Tommy getting wood in the basement is a metaphor...at least it was for me.

Are book club books and regular issue books the same exact thing except for the DJ? I'm talking about recent releases, not older books that actually printed something on the CP that said it was a book club edition. For example, if you held a 1/1 of Just After Sunset next to a BCE of it without the jackets, would the books be the same?
I don't think so. The BCE is often a little shorter than the real deal.
HOWEVER, the Stephen King Library sometimes actually sends a true edition rather than a BCE to their customers. I've received a true edition of UTD and Cell recently. I no longer have JAS and so can't compare the two editions.
Margaret Emmie Mackey Catoe, you are, have been, and always will be my soulmate, and I love you.
Con todo mi corazon, por todo de mis dias. And I always will, in this life and into the next.

I noticed that the Book Club edition of Black House had gold lettering on the spine, while the trade edition had silver. Otherwise the books themselves were identical. Of course, the dust jacket of the Book Club edition was unpriced.

I am re-reading ON WRITING, i have couple questions :
- Steve mention the picture on the back of the regulators, as being a picture on which he is reading a copy of the newspaper/ magazine that published his first story.
I dont see this picture on the back :

The magazine pictured is Startling Mystery Stories for Fall 1967 that is open to his first professionally published story, The Glass Floor.

The $35 check he received for the published story is also in the picture.
I suspect he got the magazine and the check together from the publisher. I think they do that as normal practice. "Paid on Publication".
