I've been "missing out" on King for the past twenty years, since I threw The Tommyknockers against the wall. I liked him at first---I read him when he first started with Carrie, then he turned into a drunk and no one edited his books anymore. This is a sad comment on the people around him who allowed him to be a drunk, lovely writer as long as the money kept rolling in. I don't think I've missed much. I saw Dreamcatchers and it was awful: that whole story was a monster that crawled out of his rear end. I saw The Mist---utter garbage. I don't hate the guy; I even feel a bit sorry for him because he works so hard and mostly fails to write anything good.
