You ain't my favorite author........How come I don't ever get tea or cake?
please don't remind me (Stephen and I had six years of schooling together --- every class for 6 years except for just Chemistry and one other.... every lunch together (in a small group of about 10 of us.) We walked partly home on the railroad tracks often....OMG I have been reading SK for 40 years??? I feel so old!!!
Me neither....lol (and Stephen and I had 6 years of schooling together)How come I don't ever get tea or cake?
lol.... please pass the gravy... ThanksMs. Mod, we need to get you out of your shell a little bit. You're so quiet sometimes.
Except for the hair color, she does look a lot like the original "Carrie" (see Carrie 2, except she was shorter than Carrie 2)...40 years...40 YEARS!!!!!!!!....Mama you said I was just 16!!!!!!.....ohhhhhh you've been a bad Mommy...time to "dance"....
oops I thought you said you were serving "bream"All it takes is begging and pleading for 30+ years!
Check out the house that Carrie lived in ----- very, very simular to the house Stephen lived in as a teen (although I never saw the inside)... One time I drove by and heard a loud audible voice say "Stop in and say 'Hello' to Stephen" ..... I resisted, saying I was in a hurry and would do tomorrow. When I got home, Dad asked me if there was something I weas supposed to do?PS Publishing is releasing a 40th anniversary edition of Carrie.
only 30? I haven't spoken to Stephen since our 1966 High School Graduation together.... Sad to say....All it takes is begging and pleading for 30+ years!
Love the artwork!
Carrie deluxe 40th anniversary edition by Stephen King
If you live in the US and are planning on ordering this title from the publisher make sure you change the 'currency' to US dollars. At the top right corner you will see a drop-down menu for currency and flags from different countries and click on the ol' red,white and blue. This way your bank can't charge you for changing from dollars to pounds (publisher is located in Britain).Why do they always mess covers with ugly type? WHHHYYYYYY!!!!
I like the fonts they chose. Each to their own, right?Why do they always mess covers with ugly type? WHHHYYYYYY!!!!
Fonts are artwork. Do a Google search about fonts. You'll be surprised at how much history and craftsmanship is involved. I for one love the use of type in a book cover.Why do they always mess covers with ugly type? WHHHYYYYYY!!!!
