USA Today article on Owen King

Here's a neat article about Owen King's new novel.  Seems O.King's novel focuses on a famous son -- causing some to ask if the novel is really about King's own father son relationship.  Not at all, Owen assures, it's just story-tellin'.

The USA Today article notes that Owen King comes from a family of writers.  In fact, Stephen King reminds everyone about both sons writing, "You should remember that they get it from both sides.”


The article has this quote from King, which came via e-mail:
“I’m sort of bowled over by both boys publishing novels a month apart, with good advance reviews for both.” He has his own novel coming in September, “Doctor Sleep,” a sequel to 1997’s “The Shining.” He calls it his “return to the real creepy scary stuff.”

    I believe they meant "A sequel to 1977's The Shining", though to be fair, I'm still not convinced it's that either.
