Writer Emily Schultz published a novel called 鈥淛oyland鈥� in 2006 鈥� a title that also happened to be selected by legendary author Stephen King for his 2013 novel.

Some King fans got confused by the fact that King skipped the e-book format for his book and ordered Schultz鈥檚 鈥淛oyland鈥� for their e-reader instead. Schultz said she began receiving Amazon reviews from readers who were either baffled by the book they鈥檇 gotten or just hadn鈥檛 liked her novel.

鈥淚 asked Amazon to change their search results to keep people from buying the wrong book but never heard back,鈥� Schultz wrote on her Tumblr. 鈥淎pparently there were聽a lot聽of confused readers as this week I got a 鈥� for me 鈥� big royalty check for those mistaken books. I'm not so upset anymore.鈥�

Schultz decided to chronicle how she spent her royalty money by creating that Tumblr, titled "Spending Stephen King's Money," and her blog lists each item or service she bought and how she thinks the author himself would feel about the purchase.

鈥�$180 for four extra (half) days of daycare,鈥� Schultz wrote for one expenditure. 鈥淲OULD STEPHEN KING LIKE IT: Nothing is more terrifying than parenthood, and he鈥檚 visited that in a few books so, yes, he would like this!鈥�

More funds were used on bumper repair and Schultz wrote that her family wasn鈥檛 sure how the damage had happened, but they thought it might have been while their trash was being taken away.

鈥淲OULD STEPHEN KING LIKE IT: Cars, mysterious garbagemen, feelings of vengeance 鈥� of course he would!鈥� she wrote.

Entertainment Weekly recently contacted King about the blog, and he seemed completely on board.

鈥淚鈥檓 delighted for her, and I鈥檓 going to order her book,鈥� the author said.聽
