They started a letter-writing campaign, sending hundreds of requests to his office. They created videos and rap songs. Finally, their persistence paid off. In late October, King was a surprise visitor to the school, where he spent an hour with a small group of writing students critiquing their work and another hour with a larger group in the school auditorium. No journalists were invited to the event, but articles ran after the fact in the <a href=\"http:\/\/bangordailynews.com\/2012\/10\/19\/news\/state\/stephen-king-surprises-new-brunswick-high-school-students-2\/?ref=latest\">Bangor Daily News<\/a> and many Canadian markets.
