“When people ask me what I miss most about the game, it's being in the locker room and getting to know the guys. Back in those days, we had roommates.

“As a young man just beginning to publish some short fiction in the t&a magazines, I was fairly optimistic about my chances of getting published; I knew that I had some game, as the basketball players say these days, and I also felt that time was on my side; sooner or later the best-selling writers of the sixties and seventies would either die or go senile, making room for newcomers like me.” MenYoungDiesGamesFeltSidesChanceRoomsFictionPlayerBasketballLike MeSellingOptimisticMagazinesThese DaysYoung ManSixtySooner Or LaterSeventiesPublishBasketball PlayerNewcomersSenile Author:Stephen King
