Aaaugh, I must not have actually hit the clickylink to download. Time to go through my email. But thank you again!
Slay-er? Chosen One. She who hangs out a lot in cemeteries? You're kidding. Ask around. Look it up: Slayer comma The.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I loved King's "On Writing," so I guess I'll have to find "Danse Macabre."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
That's my thought process as well, Connie.

There's a woman inside a block of ice! I'll bet she gives a cold kiss.
I see what you did there.

Because books.
Hey, Tep, I haven't been able to finish Anna Godbersen's first book in the 1920s series, so I wouldn't bother with it. If you were still interested.

The book flap didn't grab me, so I wasn't going to read them. Good to know, though.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
Speaking of Cold Kiss, it's a free book today on Nook. You can get an electronic version of the book you've already bought. (You have bought it, right?)
What's Bradbury's scariest story to you? For me, it's "Skeleton." I think about it whenever my bones hurt and shudder every time I remember the last line.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
What's Bradbury's scariest story to you?
"The Playground"! Yeesh, that's a gut punch. And there's a TV version of it from the show Ray Bradbury Theater starring Wm. Shatner. I haven't seen it though.
That's a story where I think you can see a direct influence on Harlan Ellison's short stories, especially something like "All the Birds Come Home To Roost." The horror of your past revisiting you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Nevermind, thought you said King.
