Sure everyone has heard of Stephen King and most know know of Dean Koontz. But 10 year old me wants to give a shout out to the best of em, R.L. Stine.
I have some... Disappointing news for you...
EDIT
Y'know what, I think I either completely fabricated a memory in my head or more likely got the person confused. I very vividly remember hearing about a prolific wealthy author who got called out for taking credit for a lot of other people's work but I now can't find any word about it being RL Stine despite my memory. No idea who I'm remembering.
He’s still pumping out Goosebumps novels and had a brief YA Horror podcast?
His teenage-goosebumps, Fear Street, had a film trilogy on Netflix that was well received?
Please let me know. I hadn’t been following but my kid is getting to the age to enjoy goosebumps. I’d really like to know.
