  Stephen King - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stephen King was born in 1947 in Portland, Maine and is of Scots-Irish ancestry.
King believes that, generally speaking, good stories cannot be called consciously and should not be plotted out beforehand but are better served by focusing on a single "seed" of a story and letting the story grow itself from there.
King is friends with film director George Romero to whom he partly dedicated his book Cell, and wrote a tribute about the filmmaker in Entertainment Weekly for his pop culture column as well as an essay for the Elite DVD version of Night of the Living Dead.
