So, Mr. King, what tale of horror and the macabre are you working on now?
SKStephen King
Oh, I don't feel like writing horror right now.
Oh, that's too bad.
KKing
I'm working on a biography of Benjamin Franklin. He's a fascinating man. He discovered electricity, [menacingly, as dark clouds gather] and used it to torture small animals and green mountain men! And that key he tied to the end of a kite? [thunderclap] IT OPENED THE GATES OF HELL!
Well, let me know when you get back to horror.
KKing
[cheerfully] Will do! [Writes a note: Call Marge, Re: horror]
