I remember seeing this interview posted on a web site, but didn't bookmark it. If you have it or cant find it, PM me and I'll search an old HD for the link. I bought the CD edition mainly for the finding of the manuscript but was disappointed the CD edition did not include this interview. I have Whispers 5 and found Before the Play and that interview better than the book or film. I'm not here to sell anything, but I'll search an older HD for the article if still needed..

Whispers 5 is a great read for The Shining enthusiasts (me being one).

I also enjoy having the hardcover signed limited of this release:

One of 350 signed, numbered copies (signed by King and Stuart Schiff) featuring King's essay on The Shining, the previously unpublished prologue "Before the Play," and the story "It Grows on You."
