It's #WriterWednesday and even though I mentioned Stephen King a few weeks back, I can't help but to bring him up again because--Well, Stephen King and Halloween go together like Christmas and Santa.
I could list his many books, the movies based on those books, or other accolades, but King also supports many local charities in Maine and provides scholarships for local high school students.
More recently, according to Wikipedia, King addressed the hot political issue of raising the taxes on the wealthy by publishing an article in The Daily Beast calling for rich Americans, including himself, to pay more taxes, citing it as "a practical necessity and moral imperative that those who have received much should be obligated to pay ... in the same proportion".
So, back to the writer side of King....Thanks to him, clowns are even scarier, darkness a little more frightening, proms and pigs blood now go together, #1 fan takes on a whole new meaning, and Halloween is a little more fun!
