Are you planning a hardcover edition for libraries?

For the time being, I'm remaining paperback. I did sell 7 paperback copies into the Nebraska Public Libraries System today, so that was very exciting. It does make me wonder how well those books will hold up.

I don't understand why people disparage Tommyknockers. That's one of my top 3 favorite King books.

It's not in my top 3, but I also liked it quite well. Cujo is my least favorite, followed closely by Lisey's Story.

But King thinks Tommyknockers was terrible. (I speculate it's shame. He was a near hopeless addict, feeling trapped and wondering why a man who had all he had would throw it away for a little powder in the nose.)

I think the fact that it veers into science fiction is what I like about it.

You're a tease, Jody Sperling, with your short show! LOL

You sound positively alive with this episode. Enthusiastic. UP. It was awesome. I like "salesman Jody," - and that's saying something because I can't stand salesmen.

I really look forward to hearing more about this!

Haha! I try to keep content-rich episodes a bit shorter, but I am really pumped about getting this Monday series going. I think for a lot of authors, it can be a major breakthrough opportunity.
