Submit: Week 368
The themes for Week 368 are as follows, you may submit two different CLAMP icons provided they each fit at least one of the challenges below. A list of series and galleries are available here for your convenience.
Technical: Stephen King's Works
Your icon must feature the title of one of Stephen King's (aka Richard Bachman) novels, novellas, short stories, story collections, books, films, tv movies, screenplays, poems, essays, etc. There are so many to choose from and any are acceptable, as long as he both created and named it. Collaborations are likewise fine but please avoid re-named adaptations or other author's anthologies of/with his original work.
I've included a list of possible titles for you to use just to make things easier, feel free to deviate from here and do your own search though.
*For The Dark Tower novels, it is not necessary to include the full series name or roman numerals. Example: 'Wizard and Glass' is acceptable, you don't need to put 'The Dark Tower IV: Wizard and Glass'

“I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.”
- Alfred Lord Tennyson (In Memoriam A.H.H.)
