No he's too funny. I remember reading an interview where he talked about how he doesn't remember writing a bunch of his books because he was too blitzed on coke and was just churning out slop to finance 1) his coke habit and 2) his REAL writing, his masterpiece, his magnum opus, The Dark Tower. So my immediate throught was "Oh, so that's why all his books suck, his heart isn't in it and he's just doing it for the paycheck, maybe I should check out the thing he actually cares about." But then I checked out The Dark Tower and it's like a ten year old's idea of a cool story, just pulling everything you wanted to dress up as on Halloween and cramming it all into one story. Which makes sense for a cokehead. But it's very very funny to me that he bitterly shits out critically acclaimed airport goyslop that he claims to not care about while fervently trying to get people to read his autistic one-man Pathfinder campaign that may as well be written in crayon on the back of a Pizza Hut kids menu.
