Cell, according to the Stephen King website, is a modern day zombie novel, in which victims are given this zombification by means of cell phone usage...
Sounds more like the theme of retiring should be re-positioned to he _should_ be retired. And quickly.
Instead it will be ‘the master of suspense tackles the fears of modern day technology with an insightful look at…’ blah, blah, bloody blah.

Is this the novel by King where you can place a bid to have your name used as one of the characters in the book?
Strange world.
Here’s more from the twat himself:
Stephen King
What he's offering:
"One (and only one) character name in a novel called CELL, which is now in work and which will appear in either 2006 or 2007. Buyer should be aware that CELL is a violent piece of work, which comes complete with zombies set in motion by bad cell phone signals that destroy the human brain. Like cheap whiskey, it's very nasty and extremely satisfying. Character can be male or female, but a buyer who wants to die must in this case be female. In any case, I'll require physical description of auction winner, including any nickname (can be made up, I don't give a rip)."
When you can bid:
September 8-18

So, this is pretty weird. I mean it was kind of nifty for F. Scott to use my name for Mister Gatsby, but that was out of my ability to make Zelda laugh all the time – I didn’t have to pay for it…
