Novelists strike enters fourth month

[shereads]

I read someplace that King used the Richard Bachman alias for awhile after he became famous, because he wanted to see if people would still read him without the celebrity name.

Ha! I think he wrote another another name because he was embarrassed to be producing so many novels so quickly.

Richard Bach wrote Illusions - and Jonathan Livingston Seagull.

Close enough, especially if you've been drinking.

Not that I have.

I'm a big fan of Stephen King which is why I know this. In high school I was obsessed with him and even did a book report on his novel "Carrie." Can you say LOSER!

I liked the books written as Richard Bachman better than I like King's books.

Very tight pieces of work.
