"King of Horror Stephen King has some harsh words for the work of Stephenie Meyer, and says shes not as talented as JK Rowling

"Both Rowling and Meyer, theyre speaking directly to young people. The real difference is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer cant write worth a darn. Shes not very good."

ugh what a jerk! i respect the fact that he has an opinion on MeyerÂ’s writing abilities, but i think he could have said it just a tad bit nicer =/
--
...Also I canÂ’t help but feel that thereÂ’s undertones of jealousy in the article snippet. He seems to be jealous of her success and the success of the Twilight movie (something one of his film adaptations has yet to achieve).
I shall be interested in reading the rest of this article soon to see what else King has to say for himself (or for others as is usually the case with him)
--
Pha, Steven King doesnÂ’t know what a real book was if it hit him the face. HeÂ’s just a bloody guy who is jealous of EdwardÂ’s good looks. *winks*. I donÂ’t like him as a writer or a person so I am not surprised.

if i happen to come across stephen king at fenway park this year, i can guarantee you that something will be thrown at him.

how very unprofessional, its like you talking bad about ur coworker because they do the same job but differently! it makes u look stupid!

stephenie meyer is the best writer of this generation, king was like 20 yrs ago!

Also, I cannot help but think that the only reason he would publicly criticize Meyer is that he is jealous of her undeniable success. Her books (all 5 of them) are still at the top of the chartsÂ…where are his? And who cares what he says, the numbers contradict him.

(Lahosin nii pahasti tolle viimeselle XDD)
