Ari, Just curious. Which was your favorite story?

Hard to choose one...I think the order would be:
1) Fair Extension
2) 1922
3) Big driver
4) A good marriage.
But again...there isn't a difference between the 1st one I choose and the last one. I think it's one of the collections I enjoyed the most, just below Just After Sunset (which I think it's the best he wrote).

My list would be the exact inverse of that one!
I'm so envious of those of you with the ARCs. *sigh* Can't wait to read this one based on all your feedback!
This collecting stuff is a sickness! ~Patrick
I couldnt help reading the afterword before the stories
"the stories in this book are harsh"
After reading the afterword, i understand better the title

Gorgeous web page for that.
I just received this e-mail from River Run Bookstore. I sure wish I lived closer... Anyone want to get me one of the books??
RiverRun Bookstore is honored, thrilled, and pretty much over the moon to announce that we will be hosting world famous bestselling author Stephen King for his new book: Full Dark, No Stars.
This event will be on Thursday, December 2nd at 7pm. The event will be held at RiverRun Bookstore, located at 20 Congress Street in downtown Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
This is a ticketed event. Please see below for details before contacting us. You must e-mail us in order to get your ticket.
* The ticket price ($27.99) admits one person and includes ONE copy of Full Dark, No Stars. Tickets are limited to TWO per customer (to admit two people in). Mr. King will ONLY be signing this book. He will not be personalizing, and he won't be signing other books or memorabilia. Instead of a paper ticket, you will be required to show ID at the door and we will check you off of a list.
*You must be present at the signing in order to get your book. We will not be mailing signed books after this event.
* Stephen King will sign for 400 people. We are able to sell an additional 50 standby tickets. It is NOT a guarantee that Mr. King will sign these additional 50 books. If he doesn't get to them, RiverRun is happy to refund the ticket price.
*In order to get a ticket, you MUST e-mail riverrunking@gmail.com with a name and phone number to contact you at. RiverRun Bookstore will call you within 24 hours of your email if you are within the first 450 people to e-mail us. We will hold your ticket for up to 48 hours without payment, but reserve the right to sell your ticket if you do not pay during that time.
*Once tickets are sold out, we will have an automatic response e-mail to notify you that all tickets are gone.
*Ticket holders will be assigned a time to show up at the store and wait in line. Dress warmly, because you will have to wait outside for a period of time!
**Mr. King will not pose for photos. Non-flash photography is allowed.
Wow!
Nice to know that! Too bad this year I can't make it.

Do bookshops usually charge tickets for book signings?
I remember wandering into a bookshop in the Glades in Bromley a few years back. There was a guy there signing a book (I think some kind of autobiography thing) for a queue of people. His face was vaguely familiar... and he turned out to be one of the Rolling Stones. (I forget which one. Not Jagger.) So A little Dark Tower link there too. Hee!
I think anyone could pretty much join the queue free of charge. As long as they were buying the book... a large chunk which would go into the writer's pocket of course. (I didn't. I probably wandered over tot he fantasy and horror sections and had a perusal as normal.)
It's virtually unheard of to charge a fee for a book signing at a store. Often you have to buy a copy of the current book, that's all.
I received a call and have 2 tickets. From what I understand, the ~$28 includes 1 copy of the book. In other words, no premium price just to get in and THEN buy the book.
Despite what I said, including the price of a hardback book, I guess that's not too bad.
The event is now sold out.
Jerome...I am assuming that you are having two people go for you...cause if you were plannin on visiting the East Coast I would have known and expected a visit!!!! LOL

Is the Liner Notes to 1922 by King on the site, taken from the book's afterword or written for the online excerpt only?
Well noticed! It's not from the book (not from the afterword), so it's an exclusive text.
