You're kidding! I thought it was only you who disliked spiders (or maybe it's snakes, then). I personally find the spiders on his guitar pretty nice!
(or perhaps "distinctive" would be a better word or even 'unique').
It makes me think of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars
Hi. Read Suffer the Little Children again recently. There are many stories about aliens ghosts demons and other parasites attacking humans. How would he free/protect his children/grandchildren?
(ps. Best wishes for a happy Birthday)

and ...
why do all characters named Nick die?
Oh hell.

How does Stephen define “constant reader”? A fan who reads his books as their released, someone who reads a Stephen king book once a year? Once a month?
It's not about the timing of when they read them but that they do.
Snakes for me. Spiders don't bother me.
I used to own a pet store. I had snakes, tarantulas, centipedes, hissing cockroaches, various lizards and all sorts of "creepy crawlies" in addition to the kittens, puppies, fish, small animals and birds. None of them bothered me then or now.

I've at least gotten to the point that I don't scream when I see a snake now although my language does get a little more colorful
and I might startle if I'm close to it before I see it. A mouse would do the same for me.
There was one time a lady stood by the front door and asked if I had snakes inside. I answered yes, but they are completely enclosed in a glass display located about half the way back in the store. She still refused to come into the store.
I also had a 6' Burmese python (that was a rescue). I used to take it to my wife's school so the kids could touch it. They all really enjoyed it, but some of the parents kind of freaked out when they found out. (My wife taught pre-first grade--mostly 5/6-year-olds. They were too young to learn prejudice.)

Oh I've got lots of stories for you then. Remind me to tell you the one about being stuck atop a watershed intake- at the appropriate time and place of course. I think I could make you go back to screaming.
What are Mr. King's thoughts about the upcoming remake of IT?
He's not personally involved with that one. My recollection (it's been a long time since we'd talked about it) was that he was somewhat ambivalent about it.
So am I. (to the above comment)
I recently discovered(late again
) the Orbit comic book "biography" of Stephen. The publisher said on the site that was he was directly involved in the project. Is this true and what does he think of it? I imagine the opening panels of the van accident had to be somewhat disturbing.

That's what I figured. Thank you.
