New short story: Finn (on Scribd May 25)

[Bev Vincent]

“Finn,” a Scribd exclusive, is set in Ireland and tells the story of a young man, unlucky since birth, who gets caught up in a case of mistaken identity. The darkly funny, unsettling tale takes Finn through existential and psychological crises in a world where bullies and madmen upend the lives of the innocent. “Finn” will be released May 25.

“Finn” will be released simultaneously in ebook and audiobook formats exclusive to subscribers of reading subscription service Scribd. A subscription is $11.99 a month and offers access to ebooks, audiobooks and magazine articles.

Apparently they offer a 30-day free trial

Yep, I noticed that as well.

I contacted yesterday the Scribd press team for a few questions, waiting for a reply

[herbertwest]

On twitter, King said that it's a "longish" story

[herbertwest]

I read it the other day, it's an interesting story.
Definitely longer than I thought!

Read it on Wednesday as well. I liked it quite a bit. Reminded me of a Borges story.

Quick heads-up : "Finn" by Stephen King will be released in a few days, exclusively at Scribd! 🙂
I was told by the publisher that it will be available through the free trial, but you'll need to use specifically this page for registering : https://try.scribd.com/king30/


I don't believe that it's true (I guess that anybody creating an account using the other registering system will get access to it, however, going through this page would help Scribd finding out how many new accounts the story brought them), however that's what I was told... so make sure to register from that page ;)

Now available (and as I thought, the link above doesnt seem important)
