Lisey's Story excerpt

Bev Vincent had the following to say about the excerpt from Lisey's Story that is in the US edition of Cell:

The Scribner edition of Cell contains a sneak peak at Lisey's Story. The first twelve pages of the book are presented in King's own handwriting. The excerpt is not the same as what we've previously seen in "Lisey and the Madman." The opening chapter is called "Lisey and Amanda (Everything the Same)" and deals with Lisey Landon two years after the death of her famous writer husband Scott. She's finally going through his writing office, trying to decide what to do about his unpublished works. Amanda is her older sister, and there seems to be tension between the two. My feeling is that this book will be in the Bag of Bones vein.

Thanks to Bev Vincent.
