Objective in view. Not this very moment of course. My current location=alley behind Smiler’s Market, corner Pk & 32nd. Workplace of Designated Jew almost directly across from my bivouac. Disguised as “Crazy Guitar Gertie” and worked like a charm. No gun but good knife in plastic bag #1 of “homeless person” crap. 2 foremen of the Antichrist working at Satan’s House of Zenith showed up 1730 hours yesterday afternoon. One (code name ROGER DODGER) went into market. Bought garlic by smell. Supposed to improve sex-life, HA!! Other (code name JOHN THE BAPTIST) waited outside. Back to me. Could have killed him with no problem. One quick slash. Jugular and carotid. Old commando move. This old dog remembers all his old tricks. Didn’t, of course. Must wait for Designated Jew. If others stay out of my way, they may live. If they don’t, they will certainly die. No prisoners. BAPTIST gave me two dollars. Cheapskate! Best plan still seems to wait until week- end (i.e. Apr 4-5) and then infiltrate building. Lie low inside until Monday 135 morning (i.e. Apr 6). Of course D.J. may come along before then but cow- ards travel in packs. Will do you no good D.J. In the end, your meat is mine, HA! “Beaches are sandy, some shores are rocky, I’m going to venti- late, A Designated Mockie.” More dreams of CARLOS (code name DES- IGNATED SPIC). I think he is close. Wish I had a picture. Must be crafty. Guitar & wig=good props. DAY OF THE GENERAL instead of DAY OF THE JACKAL, HA!! Guitar needs new strings. Still play pretty well & still sing “like a bird in a tree.” Got suppositories. Dropped load. Can think more clearly in spite of brain-killing transmissions. Must now play waiting game. Not the first time. Over and out. 136 From The New York Times, April 1, 1981 Page B-1, National Report COMMUTER CRASH KILLS 7 IN R.I. piston engines.

I sat here in my little home office—which is actually just a corner of the kitchen to which I have added a shelf and a bright light—pounding the keys of my typewriter for nearly five hours last night. Won’t be that long tonight; among other things, I have a manuscript to read. And I am going to read it, I think. The dozen or so pages I got through on my way home have pretty well convinced me that this is the one I’ve been looking for all along, without even really knowing it. But at least one person of my recent acquaintance won’t be reading it. Not even if it’s as great as Great Expectations. (Not that it will be; I have to keep reminding myself that I work at Zenith House, not Random House.) Poor woman. I don’t know if she was telling the exact truth about wanting to do us a Good Turn, but even if she was lying through her teeth, no one should have to die like that, dropped out of the sky and crushed to death in a burning steel tube. I arrived at work even earlier today, wanting to check the mail room. OUIJA says stop wasting your time, she told me. The one you’re looking for is in the purple box on the bottom shelf. Way in the corner. I wanted to check that corner even before I put on the coffee. And to get another look at Zenith the ivy, while I was down there. At first I thought I’d beaten Roger this time, because there was no clack- clack from his typewriter. But the light was on, and when I peeked in the 138 open door of his office, there he was, just sitting behind his desk and look- ing out at the street. “Morning, boss,” I said. I thought he’d be ready and raring to go, but he just sat there in a semi-slump, pale and disheveled, as if he’d spent the whole night tossing and turning. “I told you not to encourage her,” he said without turning from the window. I walked over and looked out. The old lady with the guitar, the wild white hair, and the sign about letting Jesus grow in your heart was over there in front of Smiler’s again. I couldn’t hear what she was singing, at least. There was that much. “You look like you had a tough night,” I said. “Tougher morning. You seen the Times?” I had, as a matter of fact—the front page, anyway. There was the usual report on Reagan’s condition, the usual stuff about unrest in the mideast, the usual corruption-in-government story, and the usual bottom-of-the-page command to support the Fresh Air Fund. Nothing that struck me as of any immediate concern. Nevertheless, I felt a little stirring of the hairs on the back of my neck. The Times was sitting folded over in the OUT half of Roger’s IN/OUT basket. I took it. “First page of the B section,” he said, still looking out the window. At the bum, presumably...or do you call a female of the species a bumette? I turned to the National Report and saw a picture of an airplane—what was left of one, anyway—in a weedy field littered with cast-off engine parts. In the background, a bunch of people were standing behind a cyclone fence and gawking. I scanned the headline and knew at once. “Barfield?” I asked. “Barfield,” he agreed. “Christ!” “Christ had nothing to do with it.” I scanned the piece without really reading it, just looking for her name. 139 And there she was: Tina Barfield of Central Falls, source of that old adage “if you play around the buzz-saw too long, sooner or later someone is gonna get cut.” Or burned alive in a Cessna Titan, she should have added. “She said she’d be safe from Carlos if she did a genuine Good Turn,” Roger said. “That might lead some to deduce that what she did us was just the opposite.” “I believed her about that,” I said. I think I was telling the truth, but whether I was or wasn’t, I didn’t want Roger deciding to uproot the ivy grow- ing in Riddley’s closet because of what had happened to Tina Barfield.

  • Untitled- ‘Coastal Thunderhead’, Discovery Bay, Jamaica, West Indies, Circa 1990
    David Palladini, 2017 This concise biography was written as a ‘fan tribute’ to the artist by Mark Strong of Meibohm Fine Arts, from years of research and compiled information about the life and illustrative career of internationally renowned artist, author, and teacher, David Palladini (Italian-American, 1946-). The biography shares elements of David’s family history and upbringing, his formal art education, teaching experience, and commercial highlights from his forty-plus-year career as an award-winning illustrator and fine artist. David’s distinctive style has been influenced by numerous art movements, fusing elements from his imagination, and from many highly decorative styles, such as: Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Medieval, Renaissance, Egyptian, 1960’s Psychedelic era, Sci-Fi, New Age, and even stained-glass window design. The introduction, written by Mark, speaks of the serendipitous beginning of their friendship in 2008 with a simple phone call from David, which became his sole inspiration for writing the biography. It offers fans and newcomers an intimate and rare view into the personal life and soul of this relatively private artist, who has himself, given his own soul to his art. It allows the reader insight into the successes, failures, struggles, and inspirational life experiences from this gifted artist, who has not only remained true to himself, but to his craft. Throughout his career, David has maintained his own unique artistic style, and has securely earned a place in the annals of illustration history. This biographical book, aptly titled Palladini, also includes over seventy full-color reproductions of original artwork by David which spans the length of his career, showcasing some of his best-known illustrations, as well as never-before-published illustrations and fine art.

This special limited edition is signed by author Stephen King. This edition is limited to 1,100 copies. This is copy IV STEPHEN KING AUTOPSY ROOM FOUR IT'S SO DARK THAT FOR A WHILE - JUST HOW LONG I DON'T KNOW - I think I'm still unconscious. Then, slowly, it comes to me that unconscious people don't have a sensation of movement through the dark, accompanied by a faint, rhythmic sound that can only be a squeaky wheel. And I can feel contact, from the top of my head to the balls of my heels. I can smell something that might be rubber or vinyl. This is not unconsciousness, and there is something too too what? Too rational about these sensations for it to be a dream. Then what is it? Who am I? And what's happening to me? The squeaky wheel quits its stupid rhythm and I stop moving. There is a crackle around me from the rubbersmelling stuff. A voice: "Which one did they say?" A pause. Second voice: "Four, I think. Yeah, four." We start to move again, but more slowly. I can hear the faint scuff of feet now, probably in soft-soled shoes, maybe sneakers. The owners of the voices are the owners of the shoes. They stop me again. There's a thump followed by a faint whoosh. It is, I think, the sound of a door with a pneumatic hinge being opened.

It is called True Tales of Demon Infestations. I know all the things in it from first hand. Contents include stories from “The World of Voodoo,” “The World of the Aether,” and “The World of the Living Dead.” I include recipes for some potions as well, but these could be “censored” if you felt they were too dangerous although for most peo- ple they won’t work at all and in a chapter called “The World of Spells” I explain why. I am offering this book for publication now. I am willing to sell all rights (except for movie rights; I will direct the film myself). There are photos if you want them. If you are interested in this book (no other publisher has seen it, I am sending it to you because you are the publishers of Bloody Houses, which was quite good), please answer with the “SASE” I have enclosed. I will send the manuscript with return postage in case you don’t like it (or don’t understand it). Please respond as soon as possible. I think “multi- ple submissions” are unethical, but I want to sell True Tales of Demon Infestations as soon as possible. In this book there is some “scary s**t!” If you know what I mean.
