Hello, thanks for taking the time to leave a wonderful comment & follow! Yeah, I'm a pretty big Doctor fan as well, even if it's a dorky Icon, lol.
On Stephan King, a user {MetisRebel, I think it was} stated this and I just absolutely agree:
"The great favour that Stephen King did for writers was prove that telling the story was more important than fancy dancy literature that the average person, on the average paycheck, could care less about and wouldn't pay for. And he was PROUD of it which really pissed off the literati that trashed him.
When he first came out, there was almost no bestselling horror to be had for love nor money in North America. He blew the doors off by straightforward storytelling while snarky intelligentsia like Gore Vidal had to eat his dust on the sales lists.
It was Epic."
Sorry about the long quote, but it's always nice to find a fellow King fan.
