Now, he may not be one of the greatest writers, but he's a hell of a good one, and I'm thinking that those of you who say he isn't just don'tlike him, which is all opinion based. Just think of how many books he's cranked out, and how effective they are. And I haven't come across a bad one yet.
Isn't thinking he's a good writer just opinion based. Cranking out books doen't make you a good writer. Dean Koontz, Michael Crichton, and Jackie Collins crank out tons of books too, does that make them good authors?
Now King is a supermarket author, plan and simple. It may have been different back in the day, but now...

yes, i know so much is so ordinary, so coarse, and so vulgar. but survival is simply not enough. nowhere near.
what's the point of surviving? survive what? don't you realize you're going to die? f*ck your missions, your crusade.
i demand and expect quality.
right now, once and for all.
quality time.
