  • Promoting his collection “Full Dark, No Stars” the #1 New York Times bestselling author and living legend, Stephen King, takes part in a "live" conversation in the Stephen King interview you always wanted but never knew existed until now-in his home, surrounded by Stephen King novels, wearing a darkly humorous shirt. The extensive conversation covers everything from the Red Sox, to King's children, to, of course, the four novellas that comprise “Full Dark, No Stars”, Like all Stephen King books and stories, these four are disturbing but totally enthralling, each of them touching on a central theme of retribution.
    What this Stephen King interview doesn't mention (because it is from 2008) is that one of the novellas "1922" is now a Netflix original film. But despite that missing plug, both this exclusive conversation and his book, “Full Dark, No Stars”, are worth consuming. To do so, visit: www.simonandsc...

    I saw Mr. King in Mckinney, TX last October, and he was awesome! You would think he would get tired of talking to an audience, but he seemed to enjoy being there. And I smiled the entire 90 minutes.

    Love the interview. Just hearing him answer questions is always entertaining. Knowing that he's at the end of his life, it's good knowing that he's still doing interviews and q&a's. Of course this is over 10 years old now. Apparently from 2008. What a time.

    Very good interview.I love when he answers to fans/constant readers directly, may it be via internet, radio or in a large room or library....He's always funny, at ease, and he can't prepare the answers and that's just great ! Listening to him is as almost as huge as reading him .

    Stephen King is so creative, it's amazing. Not to mention, what a cool guy. Plus a kickass taste in music. You just have to respect his brilliance. He scares the shit out of me.

    A friend is watching 1922. It reminded me that Mr King chose to answer my question. This was an amazing evening. I bought the tee he is wearing to commemorate it. I’ve since started a podcast. Worked to help find answers in my friend’s murder. I wonder where everyone else is that shared this amazing moment with Stephen King? The world has changed but his books bind us all. My question is at 9:49.

    A true writer, in every sense of the word. Sure he could have probably been a decent insurance agent or whatever but I CAN'T IMAGINE him BEING anything else. LEGEND.

    Okay, I am just gonna throw this out there. I have noticed over and over again now that King mentions Lord of the Flies more frequently over any other book. It must be his faovurite book ever. He just seems to adore it.

    I have wicked dreams simular to some of Stephen Kings short stories, wish I could write them out like he does though. Love Him.. and as with fardaypu, he's introduced Me to all kinds of writers, horrors and worlds. I second it, the man is brilliant!

    If they are going to make him sit there, at least give him a comfortable chair. Think what you will of his writing, but the guy remembers his own work.

    Stephen King, ....you rule! Consider a story with Clive Barker and Dean Koontz.
    The first chapeter would be yours, second goes to Clive and the third for Dean. Repeat until done. Like the great Bill Hicks tells us " Merge".

    "Good Marriage" would make an excellent movie. And if he wrote the screenplay it might actually turn out well unlike some of the other adaptions haha

    The only thing I have against Stephen King is that he's a Red Sox fan and a NYY hater. I watched that 2004 World Series, and being a staunch NYY fan I cried!

    I almost always like his stories. Even if I don't always care for the concept or message, they're always entertaining. But "Full Dark, No Stars" seems like it was commissioned and sponsored by the fucking lifetime channel! It should have come with a the subtitle "Men Are Evil".
