It's definitely not you, Lilo. That's my one knock on King. For a guy who has been absolutely torn apart by the more "literary" critics over the years, you'd think he'd be a little more open minded about young writers. Not that I have any use for "literary" critics, anyway. These are the same assholes who dismiss guys like Elmore Leonard and Walter Mosley as "genre writers." rolleyes

But you get my point smile.
