Mile 81

The description reminds me a little bit of From a Buick 8.

Hmm, I am interested in this, not sure yet if I'll get it or not though. When I saw the name of the story I could of swore that it sounded familiar for some reason. Turns out I was right, it's mentioned briefly in Dreamcatcher according to the newest News From the Deadzone

I'm sure someone will throw Mile 81 and UR together with the story he wrote for the Atlantic Quarterly the title of which escapes me something like, Herman Wouk is Not Dead and maybe a few others to make it a collection of shorts "never before assembled in paper format" so when it becomes a real Hardback bound book... THEN I"ll buy it.

I'm with you; there's nothing like a new Stephen King hardcover. Well, maybe an SK limited edition...

Anyway, I don't doubt that King will release another story collection in the future. Though it may be some time because one of his most recent releases (Just After Sunset) is this type of book. He tends to average about 7.5 years between story collections with the exception of his previously unreleased novella collections like Four Past Midnight and Full Dark, No Stars.

Hopefully King will include The Plant - finished or not.
I printed the parts that were done, but as King indicated he's not planning to continue this work-in-progress, I do hope we'll get to see it collected in an upcoming collection.

And no, I haven't read it yet. Still hoping King will change his mind and actually finish it.
