I can tell someone read this week's Parade. My Girlfriend was reading that shit to me and wondering how the hell someone could survive on $33,000 a year. While I barely paid attention and watched my weekly event of mind numbing activity called NASCAR.

Ouch.

King insults everywhere. He ain't THAT bad guys. And he's had plenty of books I liked the ideas of:
the stand
it
carrie
the long walk
the running man
-most of his short stories-
the gunslinger
misery
gerald's game
apt pupil, shawshank redemption, the body, the breathing method

just cuz he has killer cars doesn't mean he completely sucks.

I put that down to a majority of half wits with no taste....

Actually, I'm being a little mean. Some of his stuffs okay. I liked The Green Mile. The Shinning. Different Seasons. Misery.

But the guy is flaky. He's more a name than a good writer now.

The dark Tower series is fantastic (I dont know about the new one though)
but yeah, a lot of his books are 600 pages of good story and 50 pages of bad ending...(e.g. Needful Things)

king defined a litereary genre, he has more than earned his pay. and he writes because he likes doing so, not for the money. that alone is worth respect.
everyone says his style is overused, but really, he's the one that started that style. can you say that an author has gotten to the point of overusing their own style?
