Thanks! I love Stephen King, although lately he has been hit or miss. Last one I really enjoyed was The Cell. Haven't finished Ur yet.

I'm definitely going to buy it, even though I'm not holding out much hope (damn you King for letting me down so much in recent years!)

Yeah and hes really carefull bout what he cuts out too. He said he had a horrible time trying to cut the first edition of The Stand down, and felt bad doing it. Thats why he released the uncut version years later, when he had almost total control of his books.

Wait wait wait wait... are you saying that he submitted a "printed manuscript" to his publisher? Is that still done? Wouldn't they want a Word doc?

Maybe Word couldn't open it You know how it chokes on big documents.

Still, absolutely insane that the manuscript is 1500 pages long and 19lbs.
