I still think he’s a terrible writer.

Stephen King, or Harlan Ellison? In either case, I'd hesitate to go from, "I really disliked one story," to "He's a terrible writer."

I meant Stephen King. Well, that's why I said it might be considered unfair. I disliked his writing before I read that story, which I only did as a favor. I have read the back of many of his books and flipped through enough to get a sense of his style.

He did have one essay on writing that was okay but not great.
