Stephen King, is my favorite author. He writes horror, supernatural fiction, suspense, science fiction, and fantasy.
Oh, I've read a little of his. What is your favorite among his works?
I actually really enjoy his short stories. He's written over 200 of them!
Really? Seems like a lot. Any collection of short stories you could recommend?
Not particularly, there are so many good ones. I like them better than novels because of their anecdotes.
Alright. Have you read many of his novels?
Not too many. Have you ever read the science fiction of Isaac Asimov?
Not recently enough to recall. I have read some of Philip K. Dick's works, and generally enjoyed the movies based on them.
