("The Dark Man") You're not alone if you don’t know what The Dark Man is. It was on my list in between Joyland and Doctor Sleep, so I of course decided to read it. I couldn’t find it in ebook form, but I did find an itty bitty hardcover by Cemetary Dance on Amazon that … Continue reading I Am A Dark Man

(The Stand) The Stand looms in my mind as one of the most important King works. It’s also probably my favorite. It’s strange to think that it was written a couple of years before I was even born. I mean, I probably knew that, but it just seems like something that was written later, even … Continue reading May We Have Happy Days, Satisfied Minds, and Little or No Low Back Pain
