National Endowment for the Arts for his contributions to literature.
In 2015, he was awarded with a National Medal of Arts from the U.S. He has also received awards for his contribution to literature for his entire bibliography, such as the 2004 World Fantasy Award for Life Achievement and the 2007 Grand Master Award from the Mystery Writers of America. In 2003, the National Book Foundation awarded him the Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters. King has received Bram Stoker Awards, World Fantasy Awards, and British Fantasy Society Awards. He has also written approximately 200 short stories, most of which have been published in book collections. King has published 63 novels, including seven under the pen name Richard Bachman, and five non-fiction books. Described as the "King of Horror", a play on his surname and a reference to his high standing in pop culture, his books have sold more than 350 million copies, and many have been adapted into films, television series, miniseries, and comic books. I may do a more thorough post on this later, but for now here’s a photo from my trip.Stephen Edwin King (born September 21, 1947) is an American author of horror, supernatural fiction, suspense, crime, science-fiction, and fantasy novels. I met some wonderful people and made extraordinary memories. (You can register at the door, but it’s a bit more expensive.) See my full list of events here.įor those who didn’t know I was out of the country, I just got back from an incredible trip to the UAE. There’s less than a week remaining to preregister for JordanCon the last day is March 27th. Preregistration is closed for Odyssey Con, but you can register at the door.
There are two conventions in April that I will be attending: If you have never experienced a dramatized novel, check out the link or scroll to the bottom of this post to listen a sample. Graphic Audio’s slogan is “A Movie in Your Mind,” and it’s a very different listening experience from traditional unabridged audiobooks. Well, this week also marks the release of their production of the first part of The Way of Kings, and they will follow that up with the rest of the book and Words of Radiance. So far they’ve put out Elantris, Warbreaker, and the Mistborn trilogy, with The Alloy of Law coming in May. Most of my novels are available as unabridged audiobooks, and some are also available from Graphic Audio as dramatized editions.
