    I just purchased a copy of ANTAEUS. It has the novella "Blind Willie" in it. If anybody knows if this was a good find feel free to comment.

    I just got the UK On Writing unused proof dust jacket. This is one of about three that are known to exist.

    I am noob here.
    Not noob to the Masterful SK
    I believe i now own one copy of each published work he has produced to my knowledge as SK,
    and a few as Bachman.

    I purchased the bulk this year.
    It was after reading the four novels I owned but had not read, in less than two weeks, that I bought the rest,
    and began writing. These purchases were made @ Amazon.com and also local bookstores, (original hardback first ed. first printing Christine for ten bucks!)
    as well as DAV stores(hardbacks for $0.50!) woah!
    I am reading book 6 of the DT series now.

    My life is in difficulty now.
    I am writing,
    but my computer/work space is in a hallway between the fu&n kitchen and living room.

    My first passion is guitar.
    my guitar gear is in the living room.

    I dont need to describe in detail to any sure SK reader,
    that this is unacceptable.

    To make it worse,
    my 'genius' wife seems to have no care, or any f'n clue,
    as to any problem presented by these facts,
    and so while I tried to work on a short story i have been editing and polishing for over three months,
    she busted out with a truly hideous piano piece which uses no sharps or flats, and played it loud.

    argh!@!!!!!!!!!!!

    damnit.
    I need a grant in order to purchase work space to continue my work,
    or i will have to get a job,
    which i am not good at keeping.

    Cheers!

    Now, how cool is that ?

    I bought a new copy of Wizzard and Glass, had a old one and it bothered me that it was second hand...and since I`m almost done with " Wastelands " and W&G is next, I wanna read a book that no hand has touched yet before mine.

    Silly, I know, but hey, that`s how much we love Steve.

    I just wanted to say hello to everyone here, since this is my first post. My last Stephen King related purchase was Duma Key. Great book! Now I am working on Firestarter.

    I recently purchased the 2007 American Short Story book edited by Stephen King, (some great words from him in there!). It was stolen while I was drinking @ a local pub.
