Talk:Cocaine

Better Stephen King quote
There's a better one from On Writing to use. The one currently in the article is when he recounts his wife's intervention (and I think, IIRC, the part about the Scope and Listerine is from an earlier confrontation). It mentions cocaine, but it's too general for this page.

The one to use would be from elsewhere, where he describes the effect his coke consumption had on writing Misery and The Tommyknockers: how both novels were, he later realized, at least in part metaphors for his own addiction, and how he was writing the latter, up late so many nights, bloodied Q-tips shoved up his nose, his heart going a hundred beats a minute, and typing nonstop.
