Why Does Joe Hill Sound Familiar?
If you’re wondering why you’ve heard Joe Hill’s name before, it’s because alongside being an esteemed writer, he is also the son of Stephen King.
Born Joseph Hillström King, he adopted the pen name Joe Hill in order to succeed on his own terms instead of being famed as Stephen King’s son.
Hill’s works include Heart-Shaped Box (2007), Horns (2010), NOS4A2 (2013), and The Fireman (2016), and he even wrote a few titles with his father.
