I just got through reading "The Biggest Con" (A King Kon Horror Story).
I loved every word of it!

That was such a fun "page turning" experience,
and so wonderfully written by all!
I just wish I could have read it and commented on it all before now.
Awwwrrrrsome work!

Rumour has it that Steve has already sold the film rights to Universal, isn't that right Moderator :) On another note, in my edition of The Green Mile, at the end Steve thanks Marsha for going through his handwriting I believe, for he write the novel long hand. (Note: I may be making all this up, fact and fiction sometimes blend) And my question to Marsha, obviously, is; how good is Steve's handwriting?

It's legible to me. ;) The only novel I transcribed that he wrote completely in longhand was Dreamcatcher but there are several others that he needed to have a few pages transcribed if he was somewhere without a laptop and felt the urge to write. Don't ask me to say which ones as that's beyond my ability to recall at the moment.

I remember an interview with Steve were he said he wrote some of Misery long hand. I believe he was inspired to try it by Elmore Leonard, of whom I know Steve is a massive fan, as am I. On another note, someone in my literature class randomly exclaimed, "man, near enough all of Stephen King's work has been turned into films" (note; she's English and says films, yes, I hate it also.) I nearly laughed, thinking, yeah, really?

joe hill wrote horns long hand I think it was to help him write through the issues he was having with his first wife and his anxity\mental health issues. Marsha I thought you started working for him when he needed some one to type of eyes of the dragon?

I am grumpy today.. the weather is gross, to much snow, and I was walked down a down town street and saw this man who was high and in distress shouting out loud and he was standing in the bus lane\road way and I called our city's help number and got put on hold and then got transferred to the police non emergency line and while all this was going on he started to walk into oncoming traffic,, and I am like weighting for them to pick up the phone and I am like this guy could be hit at anytime, and I am stuck on hold. I guess I should have called 911. it was annoying. and made me grumpy, luckily he did not get hit and he ended up on the side walk. I did end up letting the police know to watch out for this guy. but still made me grumpy. lol
