    My introduction to Koontz was Life Expectancy and it was given to me as a gift. I was always a King fan so reading Life Expectancy made me a fan. I love Odd Thomas and Frankenstein. Strangers is a great one too.

    I just had the weirdest thing happen. I asked the question in this video years ago and I've just recently self-published my first novel. I was thinking about this video last night. For some reason it just popped into my head and I forgot to search it up. Today I was randomly scrolling and it came up. I'd understand if I typed something and searched for it in the meantime, but in my case it was just a random thought. Interesting...

    Sorry but Fear Nothing is the first in the Moonlight Bay series, not the second. You also missed One Door away from Heaven and the servants of twilight came out a lot earlier.

    I always wondered about the viability of using Vim or EMACs for writing a book. I swear by Vim for writing code but that's because it allows effortless editing.

    This is, hands down, the best video on writing I've seen on youtube. It's quick, clean and actually says something useful. I've seen a bunch of middle aged women, effeminate men and an old Welsh-Anglo man make utter tripe trying to explain what works for them, doing a horrible job of it and then having endless shilling for their own likewise terrible books. Ellen Brock is the one exception, but I'm getting really sick of seeing soooooooooooo many of these not-worth-listening-to people show up in my feed. Thanks for being a competent guy, Travis.

    Thank you!! This has been a difficult read to say the least. Almost done with it, I’m about halfway thru Return of The King and let me tell you, I AM TIRED of this 😂. I enjoyed the Hobbit and was looking forward to LOTR but it’s been a struggle even though I’ve stayed consistent in my reading not just putting it aside. Same as you, I appreciate the world building and the story but the act of reading it has been painful. I HATE the description of terrain and the songs as well. I think I just don’t like his style but then again I enjoyed the Hobbit. I think I need some time once I’ve finished it to accurately decide how I feel about it.

    Disagree… the original Salem’s Lot tv series was fantastic!… I watched it in real time when I was 11… scared the living hell out of me… although it strayed from the original storyline with Barlow being more Nesferartu and Straker being more the central focus… what it did right was the atmosphere… the sense and atmosphere of a doomed place that was Jerusalem’s Lot… it was so atmospheric that you could believe that a vampire infestation could actually take place in this small town… not perfect, but per enough if you know what I’m saying

    I've never read a single word from Koontz. But I have/had a friend who I wrote with for a long time. She always said I was in her top 5 favorite authors/writers. Top three actually, specifically beating out Dean Koontz, who was one of her top five favorites. So that was high praise, as she was an avid reader and writer. That was before I really began my writing journey. I don't feel like I have any more particularly innate talent than Mr. Koontz, but I can appreciate hard work.

    Concerning the "Cheat Menu", when they will show is determined by the Help Level. At Help Level 3 the "Cheat Menu" will stay on the screen. As you go down the Help Levels, going from 2 to 1 the main menu won't appear but the sub menus will appear, and at Help 0 the menus will never appear. However, if you set lower than Help Level 3 if you type in the commands fast enough the Menus won't appear. I normally left it at Help Level 2.
