King Writing For The End Of Times

The editor-in-chief of The End Times is a woman who stumbles across a printing press a decade after a virus killed all but a tiny sliver of humanity and decides that survivors still need the news.
She starts posting the newspaper in the central square and then it gains more and more popularity and it starts to become a situation that I describe as a blend of Station Eleven and Our Town as different people’s voices start to fill the paper.
One of those voices will be written by King.
I’m not going to give too much away, but let’s just say some of what I already have in my inbox involves scarecrows with large button eyes and dead rats and bodies dangling from the rafters of barns. You know, the Stephen King special.
King will not be writing under his own name, but as a fictional character living in this post-apocalyptic world. Percy slyly hinted that we might be seeing some “Bachman in the byline” for King’s contributions.
Two versions of The End Times were made available to pre-order by Bad Hand Books. One is an actual, physical newspaper printing that would be delivered to your mailbox once a month (limited run of 500 already sold) out, but the digital version can be pre-ordered for $15.
