He may not be your cup of tea, but he is for millions of others. I just looked up his total books sold. It's currently around 400,000,000. One of the top 20 fiction authors of all time.
did you think i was unaware of who i was criticizing or something? "the bible has sold the most out of any book ever, so that makes it the best book of all time. the super bowl routinely ranks among the most watched programs ever, so that must make it the best television ever aired"
none of these are the arguments for quality you seem to think they are. popularity and quality are not the same thing. i already said i don't begrudge his fans, i just don't understand them. i've tried reading a handful of king's books but i find i'd inevitably rather be nailing my dick to a wall every single time
:ok: what does that have to do with Kuori not enjoying his writing style?
