Did you really just say that?  Please, please tell me that you are not saying Stephen King is only popular now because he made it big with his first few pieces.  That was at one time an enormous misconception; however, King wrote four novels under the pen name of Backman.  Readers were sworming for this new writer and devouring each letter until they registered how much he reminded them of King and flipped.  Most of King's fans took up the defensive and faught saying that Backman was stealing King's works.  If nothing else, that prooved it was his style and writing that they loved not just his name.<br>  Secondly, it is a little slow to compare King to Meyer right now.  King has done many many pieces and Meyer has four, technically one if you consider the fact that Twilight is the head of a saga and that they are not four completely seperate standng books.  Meyer may or may not amount to what King is but only time will tell.  For all we know she could be the next Lewis or Tolkein or she could be a one (or four) hit wonder and fade back into oblivian like so many authors do.<br>  Thirdly,  He is not bashing the books.  Did you read the entire comment before throwing a tantrum.  I mean really, and this goes for all of you that keep saying he is jealous or whatever.  He backs his comment by saying that the reason he compares Rowling and Meyer is because, while the books are different, they address relatively the same audience.  The person that said Twilight is meant for the older individuals, did you read the last three books in the series of Potter,  They were meant to grow with their audience and did so very nicely.  As a result, they merger directly with the base for the twilight saga.  That makes his comparison a valid consideration.<br>  Fourthly, and this continues to the jealousy claimers, HE DISSES HIMSELF TOO!!!!  He takes care to acknoledge that he enjoys a different generation than we do.  The whole point of mentioning his mother was to say that the generation before him would probably argue that he couldn't write and yet he still had success.  So maybe, just maybe, she could be a good writer and just not to his generational taste.  His going on to mention other authors was just to further his initial point of it depends on who you ask.<br>  Next, He isn't insulting the readers of the saga.  He is saying that based on the facts he listed, she has some qualities as a writer that are worth being considered.  If anything you could take it as a glint that he still may respect her as an author, if not as one he would enjoy.  Really, does anyone look at the statement rationally or even bother to read it straight through to the end before flying off the handle.<br>  I am a big fan of King and I enjoyed Meyer a good deal.  Some say that she gets too depictive, but I enjoy the analyzing of characters so that fact was actually to my likeing.  No two authors are the exact same and no two readers are going to view her the same way.  The greats are not determined by who sold the most or made the biggest names.  They are determined by what stands firm over time.  I mean really, I can't read more than five pages of Dickens 50 page Christmas Carol without needing someone to cmack me in the head to wake up.  But the meaning behind the writing and its ability to remain relavent through the generations makes it a classic.  He gave his opinion just as any human has the right to do.  Are you going to stand there and sream foul play just because the words are coming from a fellow writer and not a common reader.  And its not that he says we love the books for being about sex.  He's saying that he appreciates she was able to address the topic that because more and more prevalent to teen girls in such a way that it doesn't become a porn novel.  At least thats how I took it.  In closing, please take the whole piece into consideration, not just what you want to use to fuel an arguement, look at the facts first, yelling at people just because they don't agree (even if it is just in cap locks on a computer) is ignorant and mean, excuse my horrible spelling and remember that it is better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all ability to doubt it.  And oh yeah, i'm two weeks into being 21 not 40 for those of you that claim the old age fan base for King and I only picked him up because I got sick of a large number of my friends discussion his books and not having a clue what they were talking about.  Actually, my sister in law never shutting up about them is the only reason I read the twilight saga, so I guess the two have more in common than even I thought  lol  :) - pieces with your reeces and GB -", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": true, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2009-02-04_19:20:29", "killed": false, "user_key": "5b0fab98c7a32d5434e2aae4c099980d", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "10 months ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 1, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": 5823598, "depth": 2, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "5824675": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": true, "message": "get of ur high horse!! if u don't like her works why are u on here???  and ur telling me that if you like something you don't think its good/great??? my point was that everyone is different, everyone likes and dislikes different things!!! if you weren't so narrow minded you would look at some of the comments on here and see that!! yes some people are disisng him but i haven't dissed his writing or anyones!!! plenty of people can see his pov and hers!!  i just said that if we all wrote what he thinks is great literature life would be boring!! what would we do without useless crap??  by the way are u a literary?? or do you somehow know stephen king, because u seem to be doing all you can to praise him!!", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": true, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2009-02-03_20:49:01", "killed": false, "user_key": "f107fa8ca0d5c925c8398f7d86bc7239", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "10 months ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 3, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": 5823969, "depth": 2, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "5849252": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": true, "message": "us \"Twifans\" call him jealous for a simple that right now he is not in the spot light of books stephenie meyer is and  i dont think that his books had such an instant fanbase like her's has.....

You don't have to be a amazing writer to make a good book. It's the story that needs to touch people. Even if you are very skilled and talented, you can't write a book without a story that reaches people. That make people want to read it over and over again.

They are both completely different writers. I agree with what many people said here - Stephanie is an amazing STORYTELLER, but writer... well, I didn't think she did a bad job, but it wasn't amazing. Her storytelling abilities make up for it, in my opinion, because I read A LOT and it's rare that I find a book that I'm so in enthralled in.

I enjoy his novels; I've read quite a few of them too (my favorite has to be The Stand) He has his flaws, too of course; my biggest gripe with him is that he drags scenes out that SHOULD last 3-5 pages but last 20-30 pages, sometimes whole chapters... it kills me.

He was just expressing his opinion, and I would hope we would all be mature enough to accept that not EVERYONE on the face of the planet is going to be all omgz Twilight rulez!!!

In addition to that, she'll take a bigger word and use it several times close together and then one never sees it again. She seems like a  \"thesuarus writer\".

Other than the fact that Edward couldn't resist her blood. And he's not that interesting either. The only reason I read Twilight is because of Jacob. He is my favorite character and breathes some much needed life into the series. That is the only thing I really think she did well: she created Jacob Black.

I&#39;m not saying she didn&#39;t do a good job with TWILIGHT, obviously she&#39;s doing something right. As I stated, she&#39;s a good storyteller, but not writer. If you bother looking up any of the \"complex\" words she uses, you&#39;ll find most of them are out of context or don&#39;t make sense altogether. In addition to that, she&#39;ll take a bigger word and use it several times close together and then one never sees it again. She seems like a  \"thesuarus writer\". It&#39;s purely a surface story too, something Meyer has admitted to. Well written works have depth and meaning behind the story. There&#39;s no depth, no symbolism, nothing. <br></br><br>Don&#39;t get me wrong, it is VERY entertaining, even King agreed to that in so many words, but her writing could&#39;ve been better. Anyone will agree TWILIGHT was a successful novel, but numbers don&#39;t equate the quality of a book. Besides, a lot of twilighters often say how it&#39;s the first book they ever enjoyed so, frankly, if TWILIGHT is the only book a person read they wouldn&#39;t have much to compare it to.</br><br></br><br>Also, who is Edward outside of loving Bella and being a good looking gentleman who wrote one song for her? He had more of a personality in the first one, but in the next three he&#39;s always obsessed with her safety. He lost his sense of humor. The characters don&#39;t have very much depth outside of their \"love\" for each other. Who is Bella outside of loving Edward? She&#39;s stubborn and likes reading, but what about her personality? What are her goals in life?</br><br></br><br>Stephenie Meyer also contradicts herself a lot and the last book was full of weakly constructed back-stories. A good writer will have a story outlined from beginning to end and will use something called foreshadowing. Meyer seems to make her story up as she goes along.

Both have good books but Stephen King has also had some that were bad (Thinner, Pet Semetary). Stephen King is the best of that genre. None are going to win Pultzer Prizes but they know how to entertain their audiences, same goes for Jodi Picoult who is also a good writer.

First of all, Stephen King was giving his opinion on her writing from a critics point of view, NOT a readers point of view.  His comments were appropriate IN THE CONTEXT.  When a person reads a book, they don&#39;t look for a particular writing style, or the dynamics of writing fiction, they read it for the story.  If the story appeals to them enough, the rest doesn&#39;t matter.  Jealousy is so not the issue at hand, he&#39;s had more success than almost any other modern writer.  If you know anything about him, he writes because he loves it, not to make money or to be on the bestseller list.  Those things just kind of happened along the way.  Many many more of his books could have been made into movies.  He&#39;s had many offers and turned them down because he values his work and didn&#39;t want it devauled by Hollywood like so many great books are.  Stephanie herself has worked very hard to prevent this from happening as well.  He did mention her success and the good things about the series.  It&#39;s not that he doesn&#39;t get the appeal,  he is just giving his opinion.  I love Stephen King books and I also love all of Stephanie Meyers books and they&#39;re very different.  I like them each for different reasons.  Not everyone is going to like the Twilight series, be realistic.  They&#39;re not for everyone, just like his books aren&#39;t for everyone.

They are both completely different writers. I agree with what many people said here - Stephanie is an amazing STORYTELLER, but writer... well, I didn&#39;t think she did a bad job, but it wasn&#39;t amazing. Her storytelling abilities make up for it, in my opinion, because I read A LOT and it&#39;s rare that I find a book that I&#39;m so in enthralled in.  I thought her books were awesome because you get so into the characters and the story; you feel what they feel, want what they want, etc.  But I agree with what others have said; how her characters can be shallow/undeveloped outside of their love for one another.</br><br>I&#39;d love to know how many Stephen King novels most of you posters have read - I&#39;m betting the majority of you have read 0. Like I said, I read a lot - doesn&#39;t mean I know more about books than you, but I have read many, many books and I can usually tell (for me, anyways) when a book is going to be garbage. I enjoy his novels; I&#39;ve read quite a few of them too (my favorite has to be The Stand) He has his flaws, too of course; my biggest gripe with him is that he drags scenes out that SHOULD last 3-5 pages but last 20-30 pages, sometimes whole chapters... it kills me. He also usually kills off the people I like the most, lol, but that&#39;s not really a writing flaw...</br><br>Anyways, what I was trying to say is that they are both different authors and both attract different readers. He was just expressing his opinion, and I would hope we would all be mature enough to accept that not EVERYONE on the face of the planet is going to be all omgz Twilight rulez!!!

The books are totally different. Stephen King compares the authors and, obviously, thinks J.K Rowling is better, which is entirely his opinion and I respect that, but he doesn&#39;t give many arguments for that. He only says one is a &#39;better&#39; writer and the other is &#39;bad&#39;. But he doesn&#39;t really explain why. After that he just involves other writers to prove his point. I agree with his point though. You don&#39;t have to be a amazing writer to make a good book. It&#39;s the story that needs to touch people. Even if you are very skilled and talented, you can&#39;t write a book without a story that reaches people. That make people want to read it over and over again. So maybe SM isn&#39;t the &#39;best&#39; among all the other writers out there. It doesn&#39;t matter. It&#39;s the story that does the magic. It&#39;s those moments in the books that just pull you in and keep you awake in the middle of the night. I haven&#39;t experienced that with Harry Potter, but that is, however, my view on it. I&#39;m not saying J.K Rowling is a &#39;bad&#39; writer, because the books are good, but I love the Twilight saga more xD. Well.. I think this is just the way things will always be.

Did you really just say that?  Please, please tell me that you are not saying Stephen King is only popular now because he made it big with his first few pieces.  That was at one time an enormous misconception; however, King wrote four novels under the pen name of Backman.  Readers were sworming for this new writer and devouring each letter until they registered how much he reminded them of King and flipped.  Most of King&#39;s fans took up the defensive and faught saying that Backman was stealing King&#39;s works.  If nothing else, that prooved it was his style and writing that they loved not just his name.<br>  Secondly, it is a little slow to compare King to Meyer right now.  King has done many many pieces and Meyer has four, technically one if you consider the fact that Twilight is the head of a saga and that they are not four completely seperate standng books.  Meyer may or may not amount to what King is but only time will tell.  For all we know she could be the next Lewis or Tolkein or she could be a one (or four) hit wonder and fade back into oblivian like so many authors do.</br><br>  Thirdly,  He is not bashing the books.  Did you read the entire comment before throwing a tantrum.  I mean really, and this goes for all of you that keep saying he is jealous or whatever.  He backs his comment by saying that the reason he compares Rowling and Meyer is because, while the books are different, they address relatively the same audience.  The person that said Twilight is meant for the older individuals, did you read the last three books in the series of Potter,  They were meant to grow with their audience and did so very nicely.  As a result, they merger directly with the base for the twilight saga.  That makes his comparison a valid consideration.</br><br>  Fourthly, and this continues to the jealousy claimers, HE DISSES HIMSELF TOO!!!!  He takes care to acknoledge that he enjoys a different generation than we do.  The whole point of mentioning his mother was to say that the generation before him would probably argue that he couldn&#39;t write and yet he still had success.  So maybe, just maybe, she could be a good writer and just not to his generational taste.  His going on to mention other authors was just to further his initial point of it depends on who you ask.</br><br>  Next, He isn&#39;t insulting the readers of the saga.  He is saying that based on the facts he listed, she has some qualities as a writer that are worth being considered.  If anything you could take it as a glint that he still may respect her as an author, if not as one he would enjoy.  Really, does anyone look at the statement rationally or even bother to read it straight through to the end before flying off the handle.</br><br>  I am a big fan of King and I enjoyed Meyer a good deal.  Some say that she gets too depictive, but I enjoy the analyzing of characters so that fact was actually to my likeing.  No two authors are the exact same and no two readers are going to view her the same way.  The greats are not determined by who sold the most or made the biggest names.  They are determined by what stands firm over time.  I mean really, I can&#39;t read more than five pages of Dickens 50 page Christmas Carol without needing someone to cmack me in the head to wake up.  But the meaning behind the writing and its ability to remain relavent through the generations makes it a classic.  He gave his opinion just as any human has the right to do.  Are you going to stand there and sream foul play just because the words are coming from a fellow writer and not a common reader.  And its not that he says we love the books for being about sex.  He&#39;s saying that he appreciates she was able to address the topic that because more and more prevalent to teen girls in such a way that it doesn&#39;t become a porn novel.  At least thats how I took it.  In closing, please take the whole piece into consideration, not just what you want to use to fuel an arguement, look at the facts first, yelling at people just because they don&#39;t agree (even if it is just in cap locks on a computer) is ignorant and mean, excuse my horrible spelling and remember that it is better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all ability to doubt it.  And oh yeah, i&#39;m two weeks into being 21 not 40 for those of you that claim the old age fan base for King and I only picked him up because I got sick of a large number of my friends discussion his books and not having a clue what they were talking about.  Actually, my sister in law never shutting up about them is the only reason I read the twilight saga, so I guess the two have more in common than even I thought  lol  :) - pieces with your reeces and GB -</br>", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": true, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2009-02-04_16:20:29", "killed": false, "user_key": "5b0fab98c7a32d5434e2aae4c099980d", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "10 months ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "10070329": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "us \"Twifans\" call him jealous for a simple that right now he is not in the spot light of books stephenie meyer is and  i dont think that his books had such an instant fanbase like her&#39;s has.....

SMeyer has had only one movie so far, and yes, NM and Eclipse will have theirs, but not yet. SK has more theatrical movies under his belt. As for the marketing, SMeyer has the advantage of being in the internet era. Word of mouth is spread faster and to more people than SK had even 15 years ago.

Did you really just say that?  Please, please tell me that you are not saying Stephen King is only popular now because he made it big with his first few pieces.  That was at one time an enormous misconception; however, King wrote four novels under the pen name of Backman.  Readers were sworming for this new writer and devouring each letter until they registered how much he reminded them of King and flipped.  Most of King&#39;s fans took up the defensive and faught saying that Backman was stealing King&#39;s works.  If nothing else, that prooved it was his style and writing that they loved not just his name.<br>  Secondly, it is a little slow to compare King to Meyer right now.  King has done many many pieces and Meyer has four, technically one if you consider the fact that Twilight is the head of a saga and that they are not four completely seperate standng books.  Meyer may or may not amount to what King is but only time will tell.  For all we know she could be the next Lewis or Tolkein or she could be a one (or four) hit wonder and fade back into oblivian like so many authors do.</br><br>  Thirdly,  He is not bashing the books.  Did you read the entire comment before throwing a tantrum.  I mean really, and this goes for all of you that keep saying he is jealous or whatever.  He backs his comment by saying that the reason he compares Rowling and Meyer is because, while the books are different, they address relatively the same audience.  The person that said Twilight is meant for the older individuals, did you read the last three books in the series of Potter,  They were meant to grow with their audience and did so very nicely.  As a result, they merger directly with the base for the twilight saga.  That makes his comparison a valid consideration.</br><br>  Fourthly, and this continues to the jealousy claimers, HE DISSES HIMSELF TOO!!!!  He takes care to acknoledge that he enjoys a different generation than we do.  The whole point of mentioning his mother was to say that the generation before him would probably argue that he couldn&#39;t write and yet he still had success.  So maybe, just maybe, she could be a good writer and just not to his generational taste.  His going on to mention other authors was just to further his initial point of it depends on who you ask.</br><br>  Next, He isn&#39;t insulting the readers of the saga.  He is saying that based on the facts he listed, she has some qualities as a writer that are worth being considered.  If anything you could take it as a glint that he still may respect her as an author, if not as one he would enjoy.  Really, does anyone look at the statement rationally or even bother to read it straight through to the end before flying off the handle.</br><br>  I am a big fan of King and I enjoyed Meyer a good deal.  Some say that she gets too depictive, but I enjoy the analyzing of characters so that fact was actually to my likeing.  No two authors are the exact same and no two readers are going to view her the same way.  The greats are not determined by who sold the most or made the biggest names.  They are determined by what stands firm over time.  I mean really, I can&#39;t read more than five pages of Dickens 50 page Christmas Carol without needing someone to cmack me in the head to wake up.  But the meaning behind the writing and its ability to remain relavent through the generations makes it a classic.  He gave his opinion just as any human has the right to do.  Are you going to stand there and sream foul play just because the words are coming from a fellow writer and not a common reader.  And its not that he says we love the books for being about sex.  He&#39;s saying that he appreciates she was able to address the topic that because more and more prevalent to teen girls in such a way that it doesn&#39;t become a porn novel.  At least thats how I took it.  In closing, please take the whole piece into consideration, not just what you want to use to fuel an arguement, look at the facts first, yelling at people just because they don&#39;t agree (even if it is just in cap locks on a computer) is ignorant and mean, excuse my horrible spelling and remember that it is better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all ability to doubt it.  And oh yeah, i&#39;m two weeks into being 21 not 40 for those of you that claim the old age fan base for King and I only picked him up because I got sick of a large number of my friends discussion his books and not having a clue what they were talking about.  Actually, my sister in law never shutting up about them is the only reason I read the twilight saga, so I guess the two have more in common than even I thought  lol  :) - pieces with your reeces and GB -</br>", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": true, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2009-02-04_16:20:29", "killed": false, "user_key": "5b0fab98c7a32d5434e2aae4c099980d", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "10 months ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "10070459": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "<a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_based_on_Stephen_King_works\" rel=\"nofollow\">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_based_on_Ste...</a><br></br><br>Get your facts straight before you talk trash sweetheart.</br>", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": true, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2009-02-03_18:03:25", "killed": false, "user_key": "b935337b6502b03983bc464007be7d37", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "10 months ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "10070460": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "I laughed hard at that claim too.

I&#39;m not saying she didn&#39;t do a good job with TWILIGHT, obviously she&#39;s doing something right. As I stated, she&#39;s a good storyteller, but not writer. If you bother looking up any of the \"complex\" words she uses, you&#39;ll find most of them are out of context or don&#39;t make sense altogether. In addition to that, she&#39;ll take a bigger word and use it several times close together and then one never sees it again. She seems like a  \"thesuarus writer\". It&#39;s purely a surface story too, something Meyer has admitted to. Well written works have depth and meaning behind the story. There&#39;s no depth, no symbolism, nothing. <br></br><br>Don&#39;t get me wrong, it is VERY entertaining, even King agreed to that in so many words, but her writing could&#39;ve been better. Anyone will agree TWILIGHT was a successful novel, but numbers don&#39;t equate the quality of a book. Besides, a lot of twilighters often say how it&#39;s the first book they ever enjoyed so, frankly, if TWILIGHT is the only book a person read they wouldn&#39;t have much to compare it to.</br><br></br><br>Also, who is Edward outside of loving Bella and being a good looking gentleman who wrote one song for her? He had more of a personality in the first one, but in the next three he&#39;s always obsessed with her safety. He lost his sense of humor. The characters don&#39;t have very much depth outside of their \"love\" for each other. Who is Bella outside of loving Edward? She&#39;s stubborn and likes reading, but what about her personality?

I never want to read his books again. And also I didn&#39;t get what he was talking about half the time in that book. I had to re-read the chapters before I finally got it.

Both have good books but Stephen King has also had some that were bad (Thinner, Pet Semetary). Stephen King is the best of that genre. None are going to win Pultzer Prizes but they know how to entertain their audiences, same goes for Jodi Picoult who is also a good writer.

First of all, Stephen King was giving his opinion on her writing from a critics point of view, NOT a readers point of view.  His comments were appropriate IN THE CONTEXT.  When a person reads a book, they don&#39;t look for a particular writing style, or the dynamics of writing fiction, they read it for the story.  If the story appeals to them enough, the rest doesn&#39;t matter.  Jealousy is so not the issue at hand, he&#39;s had more success than almost any other modern writer.  If you know anything about him, he writes because he loves it, not to make money or to be on the bestseller list.  Those things just kind of happened along the way.  Many many more of his books could have been made into movies.  He&#39;s had many offers and turned them down because he values his work and didn&#39;t want it devauled by Hollywood like so many great books are.  Stephanie herself has worked very hard to prevent this from happening as well.  He did mention her success and the good things about the series.  It&#39;s not that he doesn&#39;t get the appeal,  he is just giving his opinion.  I love Stephen King books and I also love all of Stephanie Meyers books and they&#39;re very different.  I like them each for different reasons.  Not everyone is going to like the Twilight series, be realistic.  They&#39;re not for everyone, just like his books aren&#39;t for everyone.  She is still young and new to the game, and there&#39;s always room for improvement for everyone.  I can&#39;t wait to see where she goes next.

They are both completely different writers. I agree with what many people said here - Stephanie is an amazing STORYTELLER, but writer... well, I didn&#39;t think she did a bad job, but it wasn&#39;t amazing. Her storytelling abilities make up for it, in my opinion, because I read A LOT and it&#39;s rare that I find a book that I&#39;m so in enthralled in.  I thought her books were awesome because you get so into the characters and the story; you feel what they feel, want what they want, etc.  But I agree with what others have said; how her characters can be shallow/undeveloped outside of their love for one another.</br><br>I&#39;d love to know how many Stephen King novels most of you posters have read - I&#39;m betting the majority of you have read 0. Like I said, I read a lot - doesn&#39;t mean I know more about books than you, but I have read many, many books and I can usually tell (for me, anyways) when a book is going to be garbage. I enjoy his novels; I&#39;ve read quite a few of them too (my favorite has to be The Stand) He has his flaws, too of course; my biggest gripe with him is that he drags scenes out that SHOULD last 3-5 pages but last 20-30 pages, sometimes whole chapters... it kills me. He also usually kills off the people I like the most, lol, but that&#39;s not really a writing flaw...</br><br>Anyways, what I was trying to say is that they are both different authors and both attract different readers.

He only says one is a &#39;better&#39; writer and the other is &#39;bad&#39;. But he doesn&#39;t really explain why. After that he just involves other writers to prove his point.

Even if you are very skilled and talented, you can&#39;t write a book without a story that reaches people. That make people want to read it over and over again. So maybe SM isn&#39;t the &#39;best&#39; among all the other writers out there. It doesn&#39;t matter. It&#39;s the story that does the magic.
