Stephen King

My hero is Stephen King. He is my hero because he believes that nice people are strong and he gives high school students scholarships for writing in Portland, Maine.

Stephen King was born in Portland, Maine in September 21, 1947. Stephen King is famous because he wrote horror novels and films. He started seriously writing when he was 12 years of age. He is still alive and he is still writing stories and films to this day. He sold over 100 million copies worldwide and his name has been synonymous with the genera of horror fictions. "November 23, 2003 New York - weakened by pneumonia, still limping from a 1999 road accident, Stephen King received a long standing ovation as he approached the stage to accept the honorary national book award."

Stephen King's contributions are that he provides scholarships for High school students in Portland, Maine. Stephen King has been ridiculed about the type of work he does and also by the press. He has a good sense of humor and he is kind and he is caring about kid's education.

Here is one of Stephen King's quotes: "Fiction is the truth inside of the lie."

Some things that I admire about Stephen King are that he gave out scholarships to teenagers in Portland, Maine for writing.
