American best selling author Stephen King ,59, was mistaken for a vandal on Tuesday when he started signing books during an unannounced visit to a shop in Australia, according to Australian media.
A customer at the Dymocks store in remote Alice Springs raised the alarm after noticing a man walk in off the street and begin writing in several books, manager Bev Ellis told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation,but staff at the Alice Springs book store did not initially realise Stephen King was autographing his own novels.
"When you see someone writing in one of your books you get a bit toey (nervous).We immediately ran to the books and lo-and-behold, there was the signature," bookshop manager Bev Ellis said.
Stephen King is an American author of over 200 stories including over 50 bestselling horror and fantasy novels. King was the 2003 recipient of The National Book Foundation's Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters.
Ellis later approached the author at the supermarket across the road in the small desert town and said King was "very nice, charming".
"Well, if we knew you were coming we would have baked you a cake," she told King.
The American horror writer,Stephen King ,best known for works such as Carrie, The Shining,Bag of Bones and Misery, signed six books including his most recent novel, "Lisey's Story".
Five of the six books King signed will be given to local charities, though one was purchased by the customer who mistook him for a vandal. Stephen King was travelling with a friend.Ellis said.
Ellis added that it was common for authors to visit the shop, check if their books are on the shelves and sign some copies.
"If they're not on the shelves, they'll ask about them. It's embarrassing if we haven't got their work," she said.
Stephen King's representative in Australia told the media he was unaware the author was in the country.King was keeping quiet about his travel plans and just smiled when Ellis asked him if he was staying long in Alice Springs
