Excellent! Look forward to listening to it.

Well, that ended rather abruptly.   

Really hope King writes that other Dark Tower story.

BTW, do you have any upcoming Stephen King projects that you can talk about?  A smiley face icon would be sufficient.

Lots of information here. You interviewed with this guy once before, but i forget what for? Nice job being wise, Bev.  And perfect example of why you would be great at Cain’s Jawbone. 

He reminds me of a puppy. Learning and excited. His discoveries make me smile — things most of us further down the road know. 

And yes. Maturity plays a big part in appreciating, enjoying, embracing someone’s writing. Life experiences are huge.  

Now where did I put my copy of The Grapes of F**king Die Already Wrath?
