{{quote|'''Rolling Stone''': Is ''The Tommyknockers'' the one book in your catalog you think you botched?
'''Stephen King''': Well, I don’t like ''Dreamcatcher'' very much. ''Dreamcatcher'' was written after the accident. [In 1999, King was hit by a van while taking a walk and left severely injured.] I was using a lot of Oxycontin for pain. And I couldn’t work on a computer back then because it hurt too much to sit in that position. So I wrote the whole thing longhand. And I was pretty stoned when I wrote it, because of the Oxy, and that’s another book that shows the drugs at work.
