I mean, really. Why has Madonna stayed relevant up till the last 10 years or so? Because she changed constantly. Her gig was never stagnate. Love her, hate her -- she kept you watching.
Steve is the same way. Instead of fighting all the technology and changes in the world, he's embraced it all and used it for his needs and educated us along the way about not getting so set in your ways that you miss something terrific. At least I hope people got that message.
I agree with you about our favorite author, I just wish you had left out Madonna's wardrobe choices.
I agree 100% with you. King is there from the start; his carefully drawn characters, sense of place and time, language, etc. It's all there. I should be done with it by tomorrow; I love it!
Has he finished the book "Finders Keepers," has he just started it -- at what stage is he at with this project? Just out of curiosity, nothing more.
He finished the first draft and is now going back to do the editing.
Will he be done by Tuesday?
Growth, schmowth.
He can plan (and grow with) a Mercedes trilogy but he can't do a third Talisman installment??
I'm *so* complaining to management. *And* stalking Straub on Twitter. (Harumph.) (Just sayin'.)
....complain away, but if he comes out in a pointy coned bra thingy, I would avert my eyes...Growth, schmowth.

I have to say I'm more interested in The Talisman's final chapter than this new trilogy. I'll read them all, of course, but I liked Mr. Mercedes better as a stand-alone thriller.
At least I hope he writes the protagonists solving new cases and not going after Brady over and over again. However, I wouldn't mind if Brady came back as some sort of consulting criminal à la Hannibal Lecter.
I don't hate it, per se, Tommyknockers was the only book of his I actually hated. It was simply average for me. It didn't grab me like I thought. I'm glad others like it, but it felt far too padded. This could have been a really taut novella, instead of a plodding novel.
No need to be a smart alec. God forbid someone should have a different opinion.

See? SEE??
-I rest my case.
(Marsha is sooooooooooooooooooooo going to hate me after all this jumping up and down about Talisman III and the lack thereof.)

I think GNT was just being funny.
And yes, different opinions are what make the world go 'round. I for one am not a huge fan of The Stand (gasp!) and truth be told, I think my least favorite SK book to date is Doctor Sleep.
