ENTER BOOGEYMAN Anthology, edited by Alessandro Manzetti, including stories by: Linda D.

Brite and an Afterword by Alessandro Manzetti.
An upcoming Kickstarter project. No info on the King story included, but I'm told that it's a reprint.
I see Richard Chizmar and Boogeyman in the same sentence and immediately opt out. The shameless daily spam from CD has made me never want to buy anything that guy touches.
Hey all,
I was watching YouTube- Stephen King at the University of Georgia- part II. ( November 5, 1980). AT 25:57.
The last question he says he has a book that is really " TOO EVIL" TO PUBLISH (he likens the whole story to the Shining's Shower scene). The book is work in progress. He never mentioned a title- any ideas what book this is?
Must be Pet Sematary.

I don't know if it's in the printed edition as well.

I agree with King's pessimism. Even if the sale of all guns were banned from this second onward, there are hundreds of millions already in circulation. It would change nothing. That genie is out of the bottle. I'm not sure there is a solution. It took decades to reach this point. An erosion of shame and decency. Closing of many mental health facilities etc. It would take decades to make a dent in it. And that is assuming that competent and intelligent people were placed in charge. They are not. Instead every issue is politicized. The world is a much worse place today than even a few years ago. Things are spiraling downward. Almost nothing is improving.
Educational Test scores - dropping by record levels.
Homelessness - skyrocketing.
Drug deaths - record high.
Wars - Endless. Costing trillions.
Murders - skyrocketing. No American city is safe to walk in after dark.
I don’t know.
This is really cool:

I'm trying to find the PDFs of the newspaper to check. This one and the one in the NYT.
King on Chasing Life:

It was published in the Sunday Nov 5th edition. It was a pleasant surprise when I read my paper. I only get the Sunday edition delivered to my home.
I ordered one copy on Sunday. 😊
This is a really cool interview with King on David Letterman from the 18th of August 1980.

This was on day one of a 7-day promotional tour for Firestarter:

Here's a book he signed that day:

The new book he mentions at 8:10 in the interview, "I'm starting to play around with an idea on paper", was the first draft of IT.
As always, these are posts that I love :)
