I get The Dark Half mixed up with Secret Window a lot. Both about writers going kookoo....so I have trouble keeping the names of the characters straight. I may have a bit of book amnesia, because when seeing the film Secret Widow, I thought I have read this. I presumed it was in the Dark Half, but may have been reading another book while reading the Dark Half. Do not even know which book Secret Window is in, knowing this might make it more understandable and less confusing. Both stories are about writers going KooKoo, but both are separate stories and need to know for my own peace of mindSecret Window, Secret Garden a story in Four Past Midnight. That's the one with "Shooter". The Dark Half is a stand alone book and that's the one where the author has an evil 'twin'. I hope that's a safe way to separate the two without spoiling anything.

Thankyou very much, read Four Past Midnight at about the same time and that explains my confusion.

I don’t know if you’ve read Rat ( in If It Bleeds) yet, but that’s another one for the “ Kookoo Authors” category.

I definitely found distinct similar flavors in both "The Dark Half" and "Secret Window, Secret Garden". The two stories have reminded me of each other at times. Both were stories I devoured happily and found quite satisfying. 😊
The movie with Depp, Hello and Hutton was one of the really better King adaptions. I think.
