I heard about this. What I thought was strange aobut it was that King and Irving made a public appeal. Who would've thought that they cared that much about a fictional character--and why, as authors themselves, would they purport to interfere with another author's artistic process? What gives?
(And, I know I'm totally overthinking the issue...)
