:13:01
..cos now you're alive
and you can write more books.
:13:06
Oh, Paul, I've read everything of yours.
:13:08
The Misery novels -
I know 'em all by heart.
:13:11
All eight of 'em. I love them so.
:13:14
- Well, you're very kind.
- And you're very brilliant.
:13:19
Like a baby. All done.
:13:22
Thank you.
:13:24
When do you think the phone lines'll
be up? I have to call my daughter,...
:13:27
..and I'd like to call my agent
and let her know I'm still breathing.
:13:31
It shouldn't be much longer.
:13:33
Once the roads are open,
the phone lines'll be up in no time.
:13:36
If you give me their numbers
I'll keep trying.
:13:38
Thank you.
:13:41
Could I ask you a favour?
:13:46
I noticed in your case
there's a new Paul Sheldon book.
:13:50
I wondered if maybe...
:13:52
- You want to read it?
- Well, if you wouldn't mind.
:13:57
I do have a hard-and-fast rule as to
who reads my stuff at this early stage.
:14:02
Only my editor, my agent,...
:14:04
..and anybody that saves me
from freezing to death in a car wreck.
:14:15
You'll never realise
what a rare treat you've given me.
:14:18
(groans)
:14:20
Boy, it's like clockwork
the way your pain comes.
:14:24
I'll get the Novril. Forgive me for prattling
away and making you feel all oogy.
:14:34
What's your new book called?
:14:36
I don't have a title yet.
:14:38
What's it about?
:14:41
I don't know.
:14:43
I know it sounds crazy, but I haven't
written anything but Misery for so long...
:14:48
Why don't you read it? You can
tell me what you think it's about.
:14:52
Maybe you can come up with a title.
:14:55
Like I could do that!
