Status Updates From El umbral de la noche

Just started reading the first story, "Jerusalem's Lot", a prequel to Stephen King's "'Salem's Lot". On October 2, 1850, Charles Boone writes to his friend Bones, describing his arrival at Chapelwaite, a manor owned by his cousin Stephen that was willed to him. While the manor and estate are pretty creepy, it has a wonderful parlor view, and Charles loves the solitude, hoping to write a novel there. Awesome!

Finished the Foreword. Stephen King ends by thanking his family for their support, his editor for working with him, the people who bought and published his stories, and the readers for buying his books. And now, it's time to start the show. Let's see what King has in store for us!

Stephen King comments that nobody reads an author's preface (aside from the author's family, friends, and representatives) because they wanna just cut to the chase. Steve is ready to start the show, after a few thank-yous.
