Stephen King Revisited
CEMETERY DANCE PUBLICATIONS INVITES YOU TO VISIT STEPHEN KING REVISITED
BALTIMORE – Cemetery Dance Publications invites readers everywhere to the launch of StephenKingRevisited.com, a massive new project unlike anything the horror and suspense publisher has undertaken in their twenty-five years in publishing.
Starting this Halloween, Cemetery Dance founder and publisher Richard Chizmar will begin re-reading ALL of Stephen King's books in the order of publication, starting with Carrie, and posting his thoughts about the experience.
"Like many longtime readers," Chizmar explains in his first post on the site, "I can chart the course of my life by when and where I read most of Stephen King's books. Re-reading Christine recently (when writing an afterword for an anniversary edition) inspired the project was like traveling back to my youth in a time machine. I turned the pages, and I was a teenager again, carrying around a tattered, old paperback. Experiencing the novel for the first time. It felt like a kind of magic. And I wanted to do it again."
When Chizmar asked Stephen King what he thought of the idea of him re-reading all of the books in order, King replied, "You should blog about it" and "go for it!"
After each re-read, Chizmar will post his thoughts on StephenKingRevisited.com. Readers are encouraged to read along and share their own thoughts, including their memories of where they were when they first read each book.
For readers who are interested in behind the scenes information about King's unprecedented career, author Bev Vincent will be writing a historical context post for each title, including insightful anecdotes about the writing and publication history of the book.
In addition, special guest contributors who are well known to Stephen King readers will be providing their own take on the books. Some of the first guest contributors include Michael Koryta (author of So Cold the River and Those Who Wish to Kill Me), Josh Boone (director and writer of the films The Fault in Our Stars, Stuck in Love, and two forthcoming Stephen King projects, Lisey's Story and The Stand), and Jack Ketchum (author of The Lost, The Woman, and I'm Not Sam).
Stephen King Revisited can be found at StephenKingRevisited.com and Cemetery Dance Publications can be followed on Facebook and Twitter for updates:
