Carrie

When I read that chapter on Carrie, how he had written half of Carrie and threw it away, and his wife found it and made him finish it.

My daughter wants to read Carrie and I was like, we're going to wait until you're out of high school because that's going to kind of fuck you up, especially now, you know?

But they were both totally blown away when one of the major publishers they sent this thing to came back and said, not only will we absolutely print this book, but we'll also give you a $400,000 advance... The book got published.

That story that Tabby saved from the trash can would go on to become the iconic horror novel Carrie. Tabby's husband was none other than Stephen King.

I actually wrote in Carrie Anne Morrier that while my kids were little, I felt like a dormant volcano.

And you go through his list, like Carrie, The Dead Zone, Misery, like just over and over again.

And the monologue from the mom from Carrie at the end.

I had the pleasure of reading Carrie last year.

It was a nice short little, obviously you've read it. It's not a great book.

I liked it. I thought like, it's definitely different from the movie.

It's told like entirely in like an interview with a neighbor, a news clipping.

Wasn't it his first book?
