New short story by King and Joe Hill

[Teriw]

U didn't wait for the second part? I'm a read it all at once kinda person. I'll be waiting for sure. Gotta get my hands on one asap though before the decent copies are gone.

In the Tall Grass has an interesting Part 1 set-up. Hill's comments in an interview about collaborating with his dad (page 32 of the Junes issue) gives me great hope for next installment: "We fucked it all up in Part 2."

The Crate was also collected in the Fantasy Annual 3 (1981) and The Arbor House Treasury of Horror and the Supernatural (1981) and its multiple reprints.

Weeds has never been reprinted except for its two publications in Cavalier May 1976 and Nugget April 1979.

Happy to say I have both!

I would assume in Shivers 6, unless you happen to own July 1979 issue of Gallery maybe?

Neither. Weird. I have eversions of alot of short stories but haven't read any of them yet. Maybe I just think I read it because I am remembering it from Creepshow? Its possible. I still keep thinking I have READ it though.

If the crate was not in a collection then how did I manage to read it already?

I would also like to see his story "Weeds" (the basis for Creepshow's The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill"). It's only been published twice, both times in men's magazines. I don't think it's ever been published anywhere else.

Well, he did say that editing the "Year's Best Short Story" collection a few years ago re-energized his interest in short stories. He's one of the many that are upset that the markets are dwindling and the short story form almost seems to be on its last legs, so I think he's doing what he can to help keep interest high.

[Brian James Freeman]

What I think is interesting is how quickly he's reaching the point where he could do another collection. I don't think he's published this many short stories in such a small window of time since the 70s and early 80s?

Three more and it should be enough for a collection. Come on Stephen, pump out three more, Maestro!

[RJK1981]

There is also The Crate, which was in Shivers VI of course, but not in any of his anthologies.

Also, it seems Bev has a typo as I thought it was Morality, not Mortality, lol. That one was also included in the trade edition of Blockade Billy

[TerryE]

I don't think 10 stories is quite enough. "Sunset" was 13, and N. was a novella.

I'm thinking about picking up esquire and any magazines going forward. Not sure If I can't get it here. Couldn't find esquire in the grocery store anyway. Took a look thinking I'd come back at get it when its out. Maybe Walmart?

[srboone]

That's 10! Sounds like a new collection to me. So what's this new volume to be called and when will CD's S/L be released?
