Stephen King On 'Twilight' Author: 'Stephenie Meyer Can't Write Worth A Darn'

"According to Stephen, "Both Rowling and Meyer, they're speaking directly to young people... The real difference is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer can't write worth a darn. She's not very good.""
AHAHAHA.
I find this hysterical because I consider Stephen King's writing to be awful. Truly. I think some of his books make great movies, but his writing, in a line-by-line sense, is terrible. imho, of course, and I don't mean any offense to any of you who happen to like his books. I don't think rowling can really write either, line by line, but I still enjoyed the hp books for the characters.

At least Rowling and Meyer's books are clearly directed towards children / young adults -- the writing style is expected to be different from what you get in adult books. King doesn't have that excuse.
