Under the pseudonym
Richard Bachman

Wentworth, Ohio...a small friendly town where the Carver children bicker over sweets in the E-Z shop and writer Johnny Marinville is the only resident who minds his own business.  And on Poplar Street, apart from the impending storm, it's just a normal summer's day - with frisbees flying, lawns being mown, barbeques prepared and the paperboy making his rounds.  Oblivious of the chrome red van idling up the hill that marks the start of the surreal nightmare.  Soon the residents will be caught up in a game of wills as the regulators arrive in force to face a child whose powers of expression are just awakening, waiting for them.....

This was a great story, and if you have read Desperation, you will see the obvious links between them...the same characters, just in a different situation.  Great reading!!!!!!!
