Here’s a snippet of Mr King’s interview with EW:

Is it distracting to have to think about little details like that when writing a book?
I have a friend, a guy from Australia named Rocky Wood who’s read everything I’ve written and he’s done a couple books about my stuff. He’s a very close reader, and I actually hired him to read Doctor Sleep to point out all the stuff I got wrong. He came back with a list of 40 or 50 things, including that I’d had Danny remembering his father knocked out Dick Halloran’s teeth with a roque mallet. So Rocky comes back and says, ‘Actually, Dick Halloran had dentures.’

What a mind.
I’m not sure I want to have that mind. [Laughs.]
