When I hear this Porsche commercial I think of our favorite novelist
When I hear this bluesy song I envision King rockin' out to it, don't know why, I just do. I would love to know if he likes it because I can't help but think of him when I hear it, weird huh? What do you think about this song, could you see King thumpin' to this song? lol

Lovin' the cover for 11/22/63!
My first impression of this cover was.... Wow, I love it! My curiosity makes me wonder whether the first article is an original one possibly read back in 1963 by King? I wonder if he had the first article in his possession or even how this particular article "JFK Slain In Dallas, LBJ Takes Oath" was chosen for the cover? I think this cover will entice more people to give his books a go since it covers such a pivotal event in history. (fingers crossed that more people will read his work, they might find it as entertaining as we all do) Even though I was born in '69, this event has captured my interest throughout the years. I am so glad SK has chosen this topic to write about, it will be interesting to see how he "paints" the '60's and the death of JFK . I love that the cover is "ripped from the headlines" literally! :)
