god, reading your write-up was a nostalgia *trip*. I think I read that collection in my mid-teens? (I, too, adore his introductions. I'd always read his collections, obv, but I used to joke that I could read the introduction in the bookshop and walk away just as satisfied without reading the rest). I remember giving Quitter's Inc. to mum to read, who Very Reasonably was like "...but why are the women 'radiantly happy'? I super wanted to know what was going on for them." Which, hai, King, about that.
I remember a bunch of the stories from your write ups, and now now as both an adult in general, and one with some writing craft, I want to re-read them from a Skills perspective as well as a double hit of the feels. There is in fact a Booktopia ebook right there... Many thanks for the review, is the point I'm coming around to, here! :D
