Stephen King is an American writer who mainly focuses on horror. An estimated 350 million copies of King's novels and short story anthologies have been sold. Many of his stories have been adapted for other media.


Stephen King was born on September 21, 1947 and is currently living in Portland, Maine. He began writing for fun while still in school. His first novel Carrie was a huge success and was soon followed by Salem's Lot, The Shining, The Stand and many more. Having written over 40 books, including a 7 part series of novels, a 6 part serial novel, and numerous short stories, he is amongst the worlds most popular all time writers. He is considered the best horror writer alive today and one of the best ever. Many of his books have been adapted for successful movies.
