Welcome to the Stephen King Podcast - Constant and New Listeners! Join your host -  longtime Constant Reader - writer/podcaster - Lou W. Sytsma. Welcome to Episode 110 of The Stephen King Podcast! Filmmaker Julia Marchese has just announced her new project and comes on the podcast to talk about it.   Marchese will next be adapting Stephen King's short story I Know What You Need into a short film which she will also direct. The Indiegogo campaign to fund the film launches Monday, October 5th and runs until Saturday, October 24.    Marchese's first film was the 2016 documentary Out of Print about the importance of revival cinema and 35mm film exhibition to culture & featured interviews with Rian Johnson, Edgar Wright, Kevin Smith, Joe Dante, Patton Oswalt, Seth Green and many more. The film played around the world, is now streaming online and the 35mm print of the film is now a part of The Academy Film Archive.   Marchese acquired the film rights to the story as part of Stephen King's Dollar Baby Program, which allows the rights to certain short stories of his to be bought for one dollar (and you really do send Stephen King a dollar bill in the mail). The contract states that the rights are good for one year, and the resulting film must be 45 minutes or under, plus the film must be non-profit, non-broadcast.   Another requirement of Dollar Baby contract is that all of the finished short films must be sent to him to view. That means you can be part of a project that Stephen King himself will watch.    I Know What You Need is a short story that was first featured in the September 1976 issue of Cosmopolitan Magazine, and then compiled into the short story collection Night Shift in 1978. The story centers on Elizabeth, a popular college junior who is approached one night by Edward, an unkempt outcast whose first words to her are "I Know What You Need" - and she is shocked to discover that he does. The film will be set in the year the story was first published - 1976.    The film will be shot on the gorgeous campus of the University of Maine, where Stephen King attended and where the story is set.       That means this film will be shot in the exact same locations that Stephen King wrote about in the story.      Marchese is an avid Stephen King fan and has been a loyal Constant Reader since she was a child. In addition to reading his works growing up, she has also spent the last two and a half years reading over 40 of Stephen King's books that are a part of his vast multiverse connected to The Dark Tower series. She is also a film programmer, actor and the co-host of the popular horror podcast Horror Movie Survival Guide.      She is beyond thrilled at this opportunity to adapt her favorite short story by her favorite author for the screen.    Her Indiegogo campaign runs from October 5 -24, and she appreciates shares just as much as donations!     Julia Marchese in front of Stephen King's house in Bangor, Maine.  Hope you enjoy this episode!

Nightmares in the Sky is an essay by Stephen King contained in a wonderful coffee-table book. Within, find gargoyle photos taken by f-stop Fitzgerald. Not sure who truly took the photos as the pen name is so very literary I would guess it is a fellow author or agent. The essay is so very King, and those that enjoy his addressing the Constant Reader will like this addition to their collection. Found this in Pennsylvania in a used store in wonderful condition so thank you to whoever owned this beforehand!

[Ep 192] “I have rewritten—often several times—every word I have ever published. My pencils outlast their erasers.” Vladimir Nabokov, Speak, Memory1 First Drafts Reveal What You Want to Say We've already covered the power of writing to discover what we want to say. We can do that with freewriting to discover our initial ideas, writing in our journals or as a warmup exercise when we first sit down to work. We can also use freewriting to bang out our initial draft. This is especially powerful if we're doing short-form work and pour out the entire story or article in one sitting. If we prefer, however, we can sit down after we think, plan, plot, and outline, and version one may emerge more smoothly, flowing from one idea to the next with logic and fluency. Your personality may feel more comfortable with one approach or the other; there's no right or wrong. The goal is to get that first draft out so you have material to work with. Once the draft is complete, the real work begins. It's time to refine that draft, through rewriting, revision, and editing. Rewrite and Revise to Improve Your Drafts As Ernest Hemingway said in A Moveable Feast, “The only kind of writing is rewriting.”2 Editing is how we arrive at our finalized message, our finished work. Because as freeing and freewheeling as we may be when writing the draft, the project needs this next discovery phase. We need to clarify our ideas and clean up our messes. We may need to tweak and tighten. On the other hand, if the curse of knowledge causes us to write too lean, we might need to elaborate on an idea we've skipped over or ignored or we may need to expand a section that needs clarity. Questions to Consider To revise, we must begin with the same basic instructions a high school or college student receives in composition class: know the topic, audience, and purpose of your piece. Read with those three things in mind to be sure you're staying on topic, providing appropriate content for that particular reader, and achieving the intended purpose (such as to persuade, entertain, or inform). For example, you can cut paragraphs where you've veered off topic and add information if your audience would need background information. Author Mary Karr offers a less formal approach to editing and revising: “All the while, I question. Is this really crucial? Are you writing this part to pose as cool or smart? For me, the last 20 percent of a book's improvement takes 95 percent of the effort—all in the editing.”3 Stephen King, too, reads his drafts with certain questions in mind. In On Writing, he explains: Underneath, however, I'm asking myself the Big Questions. The biggest: Is this story coherent? And if it is, what will turn coherence into a song? What are the recurring elements? Do they entwine and make a theme?... What I want most of all is resonance, something that will linger for a little while in Constant Reader's mind (and heart) after he or she has closed the book and put it up on the shelf.4 How to Rewrite and Revise to Improve Your Drafts You'll find various methods for rewriting and revising your drafts. Writers approach their work in all kinds of ways. Some can't move forward before they've refined the latest section. Others basically freewrite and deal with the word-vomit that splatters onto the page by returning later and cleaning up the mess with next-level editing. 1. Revise and Refine Along the Way In his book On Writing, Stephen King says Kurt Vonnegut micromanaged his drafts so that his completed work each day was crisp and clean: Kurt Vonnegut...rewrote each page of his novels until he got them exactly the way he wanted them. The result was days when he might only manage a page or two of finished copy (and the wastebasket would be full of crumpled, rejected page seventy-ones and seventy-twos), but when the manuscript was finished, the book was finished, by gum. You could set it in type.5

In our 87th episode, Julia waxes poetic about writer Dorothy Parker, who is best known today for her wit, satire, and black humor. …And you can’t talk about Parker without covering the Algonquin Round Table!

Avsnittet presenteras av Constant Reader, The English Bookshop, Las Mulas och Delicato. I onsdags var det då dags för oss att fira att vi prick på den dagen blev en förbannad ettåring. Vilket år det har varit. Och vilket bra kalas det blev. Vi höll till på vår favoritbokhandel The English Bookshop på Södermannagatan i Stockholm. På plats fanns Constant Reader som sålde några av våra favoritböcker, Las Mulas bjöd på vin och Delicato bjöd på Delicatobollar. Som ni förstår, var det en hejdundrande kväll.

"The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed."  With those words, a 19 year-old Stephen King embarked upon a decades-spanning journey that included 7 books, numerous tie-ins and a near death experience.  That's right, Constant Reader.  This week, I launch into The Gunslinger.  Please note that this week is only part one of a two part episode.  This week, I review The Gunslinger, trying to remain as spoiler-free about anything that comes afterward.  Next week, I place The Gunslinger into the context of the greater series and examine how well it holds up against the later novels.  This is one that I couldn't wait to review, and as of right now, this is my favorite episode I've recorded so far! Join our ka-tet as we make our way across the desert, into the mountains in our quest to reach The Dark Tower.  Will we reach it? Let's find out together! Thanks to Bright Giant for use of their song, "Jake and the Gunslinger."
