All day. So my pal Matt Stags he sends me this book and he's like dude you got to read this book this book is fucked up you're going to love it because he knows I love Stephen King and that

you know that that sort of twisted genre so he sends me this book right here

send this well it's in my bag here somewhere. He sends me your book and I enjoy the fucking shit out of it.

I am I want I want to pull it out because I'm it's so beat up and dogier proves that I've actually been reading it. The troop. And I guess I'm about,

when am I about 200 plus pages into it? It's really getting juicy. I'm really enjoying it, man.

It's really good.

Good, good, thank you.

It's really fun and it's, you know, it's along the lines of like Stand By Me or one of those classic old Stephen King books, you know, like the stand or or pet cemetery where it's just twisted and dark and there's psychological shit going on and there's horrific things having, there's monsters, and it's really fucking cool man and when he sent it to me he told me that Nick

Carter wasn't your real name and I was like well what's what's the deal there

yeah what is what's the deal there? the deal there?

Well, you know, I think the most concerning thing to me would be is that anyone, because I mean I grew up like you,

like Stephen King is my idol.

Steve, there's nobody I've read more than Stephen King and beyond that like

I grew up as a horror reader. I mean I have read everything now. I mean you sort of diversify, but I wouldn't

even say diversify because that's sort of like I love the horror genre

So like Clyde Barker obviously Stephen King Peter Straub Robert Armicammon. I mean the list goes on and on and on that was sort of who I cut my teeth on.

So really my agent said listen you've been writing these things under your own name and they're kind of

there I wouldn't even classify them as literary but maybe they would be a little more to that side

rather than the horror genre.
