In 2007, King received an award for lifetime achievement from the Canadian Literary Guild, the only non-Canadian to be bestowed this award. He's got a Hugo. That's serious shit we're talking about. They're bestowed upon writers like Isaac Asimov, not Stephenie Meyer. He's also been writing longer than Meyer's been alive. (His debut novel, Carrie, which certainly was not the first creative thing he'd ever written, was published the same year SMeyer was born, and his first short story, "Land of 1,000,000 Years Ago" was written fifteen years prior, when he was twelve!) His book on writing clearly shows that while he might not be the greatest writer alive, he takes time and care with the craft of writing and tries to better himself. This is a man who takes the English language seriously, unlike SMeyer (don't get us started on her thesaurus rape). Speaking of SMeyer, she has 42 million books sold, and all the awards she's got are mere sales figures, or the Kid's Choice Awards and the Golden Delete Key. FYI- The Golden Delete Key is not a legit literary award, and is actually like winning a Raspberry (in other words, a reward for being BAD), so it can only be appreciated by those who are in it for teh lulz (like us). What fame is Stephen trying to steal? We're not saying he's perfect, of course, like all human beings, he and his stories have flaws. SMayo SMeyer however, has flaws that are too obvious to not miss.
