I used to go to all of Thor's book signings but have yet to read one. Want a signed Black List or Full Black?

Bears and Dive: I've spoken too soon, more than once, on this story. Into January, I believe it is a great one, I like it better than Rage. It's much more textured, and I think it's almost as funny (in a dark way).
Spoiler: 08-08-2013 07:11 PMdivemasterI'm glad you gave it a chance and are enjoying it. I look forward to your thoughts once you've finished it. There might be a thread somewhere dedicated to discussion of Roadwork; I know I've written a few thoughts about why the story affected me so much. 08-09-2013 01:02 AMJeanwhat dive said, except there's no Roadwork thread. I think you posted during the CRA events.
ETA: there is now:

and this was one of the first ever OAV's i bought 08-09-2013 11:27 AMDoctorZaiusI won't sound like much of a King fan, but I have finally gotten around to reading Joyland. About halfway done, and I am loving it. It's a very nostalgic piece so far. 08-09-2013 12:08 PMDan 08-09-2013 12:12 PMSystemCrashOverRide 08-09-2013 12:13 PMSystemCrashOverRide 08-09-2013 12:29 PMStebbins 08-10-2013 08:48 AMDoctorZaiusOK, just finished JOYLAND in four days - good for me. I loved it. One of King's best. I have always felt King works best in a shorter medium. I must confess that I am a sucker for coming-of-age stories. This is right up there with McCammon's Boys Life, Simmons's Summer of Night, King's own The Body, and dare I say, portions of King's IT. All the nostalgia brings memories of all my "firsts" in life. Makes me want to embrace my inner "Greenie" again! Bravo, Mr. King! 08-10-2013 12:50 PMfearless-freakhttp://www.abfar.co.uk/_images/40931.jpg
this battle's always interested me and it's also used as the basis of one of the tales that I'm writing 08-10-2013 01:02 PMDan999 anthology 08-10-2013 07:56 PMOchrisOAnd now this one:

Stebbins, I heartily approve of your Bachman kick. 08-13-2013 11:50 AMDoctorDodgehttp://textualdetails.files.wordpres...over.jpg?w=474
This has always been one of my all-time favourite books, but I keep forgetting just how brilliant it is. In some ways, I prefer it to Lord of the Rings, and that's partially to do with how the story is told - the narration is absolutely hysterical to read sometimes. 08-13-2013 12:48 PMJeanare you ever going to nominate???
