Woman Banks Royalties After Stephen King Fans Unwittingly Buy Her Book
LatestAuthor Emily Schultz (The Blondes) has made out with an impressive sum of cash and quite the story after an Amazon mixup sent readers looking for a Stephen King book to her novel instead. And now she’s documenting the purchases she’s made with her royalties at $pending the $tephen King Money.
Eight years ago, Schultz penned a book called Joyland, a coming-of-age story that takes place in a video arcade. Last year, Stephen King penned a book called Joyland, a very different coming-of-age story about an amusement park carny and the ghost of a murdered child. When King’s Joyland, went on sale, it was not available as an ebook, so people mistakenly downloaded the ebook of Schultz’s Joyland instead.
