The following submission letter, written by an aspiring author aged just 14, arrived at the offices of Spacemen Magazine in 1961 and was accompanied by a copy of ‘The Killer,’ the polite youngster’s latest short story. Unfortunately for him the magazine’s editor — Forrest Ackerman — didn’t deem the tale worthy of inclusion at that point, and it would be another 33 years before he changed his mind and decided to publish it in issue #202 of another of his magazines: Famous Monsters of Filmland.
By that time however, the story’s author, Stephen King, was already rather successful.Image: C. Lawrence

The Mist (2007) | dir. Frank Darabont
“Well, we gave it a good shot. Nobody can say we didn’t.”
As a species we’re fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and start dreaming up reasons to kill one another. Why do you think we invented politics and religion?
