    I know this will sound weird to some people and to some they will sadly know where I'm coming from. Stephen King saved my sanity as a teenager. When i read his books i could leave my horrible home life for a few chapters at a time. If I'm honest more than a few chapters at a time. But i digress. When people talk about his drug/alcohol abuse. He's human. Mr. King is the one who told us He had a problem. He's overcome His addictions and is a better man for it. Also from what i see and hear His kids are well adjusted human beings. Be like Stephen King!

    I'm pretty new to Stephen King. I didn't think I was smart enough to read his stories. I'm glad I did pick up my first King book. (11.22.63) I can't get enough of books and talks on RUclips. I'm subscribed to the radio station he owns out of Maine. I haven't read it yet, but I do have his novel "You Like It Darker." I am currently reading "Mr. Mercedes."

    39:43 He's righter than you realize. I know a girl who was drinking with friends late and was told to sleep in the guest bedroom rather than drive home. Little did she or the home-owner know that one of his old high school friends had been down on his luck and sleeping under that bed for weeks, sneaking in and out of the house, because he knew his friend's schedule of working nights at a restaurant. So when the girl walked in the room and put the light on, he calmly crawled out from under the bed and walked past her down the stairs and out of the house. King knows. This shit happens.

    • @waywardmind
      @waywardmind 7 лет назад +2

      Possibly, but he had a great deal very early on: he was 50/50 with Doubleday. I'm pretty sure he's maintained that throughout his career (if not better), with both hardcover and mass market releases. Tough to beat that split.

    • @waywardmind
      @waywardmind 7 лет назад +5

      ***** Maybe, but not necessarily. He would have to pay for an editor, cover artist, and someone to coordinate with television, radio, podcasts, et cetera (marketing, in other words). You're also ignoring the fact that many of his readers prefer physical books and wouldn't buy e-books. His younger readers might prefer e-books, but his core readership is 45+. Most authors would do well to self-publish but not legacy authors.
