I figured something like that. Probably ponificating from a moment of weakness, but as you suggest he's not qualified to retire. Probably wishes now he hadn't said anything but as good as King is even he can't unring a bell once he tolls it. Personally I'm glad he's still writing. I change my mind about a lot of things. Wow, this page is really big.

I have this theory that when King passes, we will continue to get novels that he has squirreled away for at least ten years after his death. He has talked about his "trunk novels" for years and we have seen some of them come to fruition (Blaze, Under the Dome). He discussed this idea in Bag of Bones, Mike Noonan was publishing his trunk novels because he had writer's block. I think it is a pretty well founded theory.

Great idea. Didn't King find a "trunk novel" written by his Dad before he took off for parts unknown?

Not really, aside from a good, quality horror read. I tend to like individual novels versus, say, series (even Stephen King, for some reason... I could never get into the Dark Tower), and tend to like horror that veers more into the supernatural or sci-fi-ish, but other than that, pretty open to suggestions.

Great bunch of books by the way. Gonna keep my eye open for GHOULS OF THE MISKATONIC and SILVER SCREAM. Never seen those before and they look cool.
