ABOUT THE COVER and ARTIST, ERIK WILSON:

This unique cover was commisioned by OCP with artist Erik Wilson. The design is based on the idea on where Stephen King gets his ideas... from a little "idea" shop that he has mentioned over the years. You can see the light coming out through the front door, and titles of his stories are streaming through the light, with Stephen King in the doorway. This is a fitting cover for all the ideas and stories that are discussed within Stephen King: Uncollected, Unpublished.
