the 'themes', from my first SK page. I have a perfectly good reason for this. Stephen King is a man. A writer (and a darn good one) , but also a person. To me, Stephen King is not the same, as Stephen King Books. I am a *huge* fan of his books, but I feel , as a person, he deserves his privacy, as much as I do. As wonderfully talented as he is, he IS seperate from his stories. As much as I love his books, you will *never* see me, standing outside his house, waiting for a glimpse. Or writing #1 fan letters. *g* Now, that isn't to say, I wouldn't have him sign a couple books, if he was in the area doing so. *eg* Ok , Ok, I'm getting off my soapbox, and giving you the bio.
of Ruth and Donald King. He has one older brother, David. In 1949, when Stephen was 2 years old, his father left one night and never came back. There are a couple of turning points in his young life that he believes pointed him in the direction that he now is at. In 1954 he began to write stories. Around 1959, he found a box of horror and sci-fi books in his aunt's house. Those books brought the horror genre to him. He began writing horror stories shortly there after. In 1965, his first story was published "I Was A Teenage Grave Robber" in the Comics Review magazine. In 1971, King married his wife, Tabatha Spruce, and they now have three children, Joe, Owen and Naomi. His first novel, Carrie, was published in 1973. Since then, King has had numerous short stories and novels published and movies created from his work. Stephen King is called the "Master of Horror". His books have been translated into many different languages, published in over 30 different countries. There are millions of copies of his novels in publication. He continues to live in Bangor, Maine with his wife where he writes out of his office in his home.
