When it comes to covering bestselling author Stephen King, we've been living in two very different worlds On one hand, Mike Flanagan, Trevor Macy & King now have us hooked on learning more about the upcoming "Dark Tower" television/film combo adaptation On the other hand, there's also the matter of King's very active social media[...]

If you've been following our coverage of the back-and-forth going on between Elon Musk and noted bestselling author Stephen King over Musk's handling of Twitter – specifically, the blue checkmark/verification process that now requires payment – then you know that King's no fan And that's resulted in a series of tweet exchanges that's left the[...]
