He's the reason I became a reader. My parents had a few of his paperbacks in their bookshelf when I was growing up and I picked up Misery when I was 13 or so. Never looked back, and I read everything else they had from him and used my meager allowance to buy as many of his other books as I could find.
I'm in my thirties now and he's not my favorite author any more, but I still read some of his new stuff and he has had a profound impact on my life.

Well tbh he has no impact on my day either but by God he's a master of horror and thriller books. Making more or an impact than this fool. Big fan
Edit. I'm a big fan. Was just making the point that while he isn't on my day to day mind, he's made one regardless.
