Stephen King Archive: w/a Twist

For this group blog post, we were presented with the task of having to decide a topic of which we would create an archive for and then have to pitch it to Justus through a blog post. Brainstorming within our group, we came up with the idea to create a Stephen King Archive. "But isn't there already like a 100 of those?" Yes, but ours will have a twist opposed to a traditional archive of all King's literary and cinema works.

For our King archive, we thought it would make sense to produce an archive specifically dedicated to keeping a collection of his UNPUBLISHED works. A collection of his works, that by his standards, maybe just weren't good, but would still be an absolute thrill to watch and read for us. Our archive would contain everything from film scripts and novels, as long as they weren't mainstream like most of King's work.

Furthermore, the whole reason behind archiving these pieces is because they are actually in danger of disappearing, whereas all the mainstream works of King will certainly be within our reach and possession for decades to come. Furthermore, while it may not seem like so, King has numerous works of published that one can read about sporadically across the internet. While this is great, it is not easy because they are all in different places. Our archive's goal would be to bring them all into one central location for people to enjoy for years to come.

Moving forward, some examples of unpublished works by Stephen King include pieces like The Aftermath, The Cannibals, Squad D, and many more. To conclude, our archive would be a place where Stephen King's unpublished works can congregate from the past, and for years to come.
