I just got done reading Pet Semetary by Stephen King a couple days ago. Holy cow, guys. It's definitely my new favorite Stephen King book, and probably top 5 favorite books of all time.

In the intro, King talks about the book being based on true events, but with a worst-case-scenario twist.

A lot of people have asked me where the idea for 2,300 Steps came from, and that's exactly how I explain it—real life events with a worst-case-scenario twist.

I really did get my wife an Apple Watch for Christmas and she really did have some unexplained steps in the middle of the night. She had a history of sleepwalking as a kid, so we thought it was kinda funny and kinda creepy.

The premise was simple enough—it just developed on its own from there.

While I was writing the story, I realized that my wife had stopped wearing her Apple Watch at night after that first night... so maybe 2,300 Steps is truer than we thought.......................

Oh, and it's FREE on Amazon this week! Review it and share with your friends!
