But... Stephen King alone has written 65 novels...

    I’ve seen interviews with him where he mentioned: ‘I was reading a synopsis of a story that sounded really interesting’ only to discover that it was about a book that he had written. And apparently he has no memory of writing Cujo.

    There’s ‘doing coke’ and ‘doing coke so much I forgot I wrote a fucking best selling novel’.

    I read one of his short stories recently that followed one of the characters whose child died in Cujo. I love the idea of Stephen King completely forgetting he wrote that book and having to go back and read it to come up with characters for his later stories. Do you suppose while reading he was like "Damn this book is great, I wonder what'll happen next?"
