Says the weirdo that writes books for teenaged girls.
What I - as a reader - consider his three main faults as a writer.
1. A lot of his stories have no end game. He gets to a point at the conclusion of his stories where he tends to wrap them up too quickly. Some sort of McGuffin he pulls out of his arse to wrap it up.
2. His characters all have the same voice. No matter where the story is located, they all sound the same. And no one in really talks the way his characters talk.
3. He pushes his liberal politics in his stories. Especially since 2015, the main 'good' characters in his stories all hate Trump, and the 'bad' or whacky characters all like Trump. As a side note, anyone he writes as a Christian is portrayed as whacko-cracko.
I think the days of the super hero craze is coming to an end.
It was interesting to see the comics brought to life with modern special effects initially but after 20 years the novelty is gone and the plot lines have diverged to to unwatchability.
Add in the inevitable politics and DEI and Hollywood virtue signaling and people are walking away
The same can be said for Star Wars and Jurassic Park as well as the rest of the motion picture franchise trend
I wonder if he’s for actual abortion pics being distributed....as far as porno-graphic goes - his stuff is more graphic than what he’s complaining about - gore may be his “alone time porn”...
When did Steven King become such a blathering idiot? On the subject of “almost pornographic,” Mr King, why did you insert that bizarre children’s orgy into It?
That wasn't gory. Just dusty.
I used to think so, too, but his rambling, looooong books bored me after a while.
