In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Due said, "As a student in my first undergraduate creative writing workshop at Northwestern University, I listed my two favorite authors as Nobel Prize winner Toni Morrison and Stephen King. My classmates seemed a bit taken aback when I mentioned King’s name (a commercial writer?), but I felt vindicated years later when he received his Medal of Arts from President Obama. The lasting value of King’s oeuvre is already apparent." In this interview, she also talked about how she once played keyboard in the Rock Bottom Remainders band, which was comprised of writers including Stephen King!

Ya'll know who Stephen King is! I love how varied his books can be. I picked a story from Night Shift, which contains, to me, some of his most "Stephen King-ery" type stories (the ones that launched cheesy movies like Salem's Lot, Maximum Overdrive, Children of the Corn, etc. Graveyard Shift was also adapted into a movie.)

Also, if enough folks think we should move this to a new location that stays open later, I'd like to propose Casa Video or The Hop Shop courtyard. If I hear from enough folks in the comments, I'll change the location :)
