After nearly 10 months, I finally finished the complete and uncut edition of Stephen King's The Stand. For those of you who have read this book, I don't need to tell you how very awesome it is. Finishing it was like saying goodbye to a very good friend. King is a master, and in the last 10 months I feel as if I have been studying under him, learning (or trying to, anyway) the crafts of characterization, description, and good, old-fashioned story telling. Besides, what a terrifyingly kick-ass story! I recommend it to anyone looking to hone their craft... and enjoy a really good read in the process.

I'll definitely have to read this! I've heard lots of good things about it.
Hmm, I haven't read Stephen King, but maybe I should try that one.
