Yes I do know who Steven King is. Even famous authors need to spend a lot of money on advertising when they publish a new book, and twitter certainly helps here.

Saying Steven King, one of the most successful authors in the world, needs Twitter to market his books is a such an insane take that it warrants asking if you have any idea what you're talking about imo

Steven King (or his publisher) spend more then $8 per month advertising his books. He might not need twitter, but it's worth more then $8 per month to him.

I honestly don't know what's so hard to understand about this. Do you think apple isn't going to pay $8 per month for a verified twitter account either, since it's already one of the most valuable brands on earth?
