"There was this one awful minute when I sat there and I thought, 'I can't do this. I don't know how to do this anymore,'' The Associated Press previewed the intervied and they suggest that King has had much more difficulty writing than was previously revealed. In late July, he said he had begun writing an hour-and-a-half a day. "At first it was as if I'd never done this in my life," he is quoted as saying. "It was like starting over again from square one." King also said he is just happy to be alive. In more King news, Publishers Weekly reports that his latest work will be an audiobook, Blood and Smoke, that will be released with no print counterpart. It consists of three stories, two of them original, all on the theme of cigarette smoking. Read by King himself, the audio runs three and a half hours, and will be published by Simon & Schuster on casette and CD Nov. 22.

But who knows, they made Freddy cool again, maybe they could do the same with Jason. Whichever film receives a greenlight is expected to be released by the end of 2000. New Dracula Flick in 2000?
