There's been a lot of recent press — and some misinformation — about what's going on with the house at 47 West Broadway in Bangor.

We are in the very beginning of planning the writers' retreat at the house next door,  providing housing for up to five writers in residence at a time. The zoning change getting press coverage was the first step. We are 1 to 2 years away from an operating retreat.  

The archives formerly held at the University of Maine will be accessible for restricted visits by appointment only. There will not be a museum and nothing will be open to the public, but the archives will be available to researchers and scholars.

The Outsider premieres January 12 on HBO.

The Doctor Sleep trailer is coming. TODAY.

The classic masterpiece by #1 New York Times bestselling author Stephen King—illustrated by the legendary artist Bernie Wrightson!

“Something inhuman has come to Tarker’s Mills, as unseen as the full moon riding the night sky high above.”

The first screams came in January from the snowbound railwayman who felt the inhuman fangs ripping at his throat. The shrieks of ecstatic agony from the woman attacked in her cozy bedroom were heard the following month. As the year progresses and the seasons change, scenes of unimaginable horror unfold in the isolated Maine town of Tarker’s Mills. No one knows who will be the next victim. But one thing is certain—when the full moon rises, a paralyzing fear sweeps through the community. For snarls that sound like human words can be heard through the wind…and all around are the footprints of a monster whose hunger can never be sated...

As the debut title from Brian James Freeman's new LetterPress Publications, this volume is going to be a must-have for every Stephen King collection, but to make it a really extraordinary launch for his new press, Brian has decided to offer Revival: The Deluxe Special Edition as a "Preorder Only Limited Edition."

That means you, the collectors, get to set the print run! Reservations will only be accepted from May 15 until May 31 — after that, the print run is set and the book is guaranteed to be OUT OF PRINT pre-publication, so it will never show up heavily discounted or in Grab Bags from the publisher, etc.
