Hello,

My name is Jonathan Dalama and I currently reside in Miami, FL. I am an English major at FIU and have aspirations to become a full-time writer. I didn't realize how big a fan of Stephen King I was until I began to realize that some of my favorite movies derived from some of his novels. Movies are my passion and I grew up watching movies such as IT, The Shining and Shawshank Redemption. When I realized that these movies were adaptations of some of Mr King's novels, i began reading some of his stories. The first novel that I read from Mr King's collection of masterpieces is "The Shining" and after reading it, every book that I have picked up since has been written by the KING himself.

I really enjoy the short story collections.....Night Shift, Skeleton Crew, Full Dark No Stars, Just After Sunset, etc.
My personal favorites are Pet Sematary and 'Salem's Lot.

Thank you! I am currently finishing up "On Writing" and then I plan on reading "Doctor Sleep." Any recommendations?
Depends on what you're in the mood for. Want some fantasy: any/all of the The Dark Tower books, The Eyes of the Dragon, The Talisman. Adventure: The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon, The Stand, Desperation. Spooky: 'Salem's Lot, Gerald's Game, Pet Semetary. SciFi: The Tommyknockers, The Jaunt (short story). An excellent choice is always a volume of the short stories. Here's a list of everything...
