If you're not checking out http://www.NewsFromtheDeadZone.com, here is just
a little bit of the news you've been missing!
Here's an audio excerpt from DUMA KEY:

There's an essay by editor Chuck Verrill at Amazon entitled Duma Key: Where It All Began, and you can read the beginning of the novel in parallel with the short story Memory to see the differences between the two:

Here's the Publishers Weekly review with mild spoilers:
"In bestseller King's well-crafted tale of possession and redemption, Edgar Freemantle, a successful Minnesota contractor, barely survives after the Dodge Ram he's driving collides with a 12-story crane on a job site. While Freemantle suffers the loss of an arm and a fractured skull, among other serious injuries, he makes impressive gains in rehabilitation. Personality changes that include uncontrollable rages, however, hasten the end of his 20-year-plus marriage. On his psychiatrist's advice, Freemantle decides to start anew on a remote island in the Florida Keys. To his astonishment, he becomes consumed with making art--first pencil sketches, then paintings--that soon earns him a devoted following. Freemantle's artwork has the power both to destroy life and to cure ailments, but soon the Lovecraftian menace that haunts Duma Key begins to assert itself and torment those dear to him. The transition from the initial psychological suspense to the supernatural may disappoint some, but even those few who haven't read King (Lisey's Story) should appreciate his ability to create fully realized characters and conjure horrors that are purely manmade."
Hi Folks!
The good folks at Hodder & Stoughton sent me a note about their new Stephen King contest this morning and it sounds pretty interesting! If you have any interest in graphic design, and you're a big King fan, this could be a huge opportunity so definitely check it out!
----------
Design Stephen King¹s next ad campaign
Hodder & Stoughton, publishers of Stephen King, are offering you a unique opportunity to design the advertising for his new novel Duma Key which will be published in January 2008.

The winning design will be chosen by Hodder & Stoughton and Stephen King and will be turned into a national poster campaign. The designers of the top ten entries will also receive a limited edition proof copy of the new novel with their own name printed on the front cover.
The competition is open to anyone. Further information on the competition is available at www.stephenking.co.uk
