Hi I'm a Famous Alcoholic (37 person items)"The horror-story writer nearly died of a drug and alcohol overdose in his mid-40s. King’s family and friends staged an intervention, dumping evidence of his addictions taken from the trash including beer cans, cigarette butts, cocaine, painkillers, and marijuana in front of him. King immediately sought help and quit all forms of drugs and alcohol in the late 1980s, and has been sober since. "

Day 21 - Favorite author - fiction
I love Stephen King movies now, but back in the 80's I really loved his books more. I read most all of them - my favorite was It, by I also liked Misery, Pet Sematary and Four Past Midnight - It is to bad I donated all the books to a library a while ago, because I'd like reread some of them."
