What is your favorite last line of a King story? it can be a short story, or a novel, or anything in between.

Mine is: She always knew the hay would be there.

Off the top of my head, I can think of two stories where a form of art that is not writing is important for at least one main character:

Duma Key and painting

The Life of Chuck and dance

Any others? I still have about 19 King books to read, so there may be ones I'm not aware of, but I'd love it if one of his main characters was a musician...

In my reading of King's work, I think todash space pops up in many of his stories. I submit for your consideration:

"The Jaunt" - teleportation could be happening through todash space.

"The Mist" - the monsters come into this world through a rift in todash space.

The void in Revival sure sounds like todash space to me, as does the portal in "N." and the Buick in From a Buick 8.

Many of the supernatural monsters in various stories, including his Lovecraftian horrors, could be argued to be coming from todash space (He Who Walks Behind the Rows in "Children of the Corn," It in IT, The Langoliers - hell, even the Wendigo in "Pet Sematary."

Thoughts?

I'm curious. What's the most memorable nonsense you've heard from a student who was assuming college would be just like high school?

I'll go first: They'll still get 50% of the points for assignments that haven't been turned in.
