Horror author Stephen King has revealed US President Donald Trump has blocked him on Twitter.
The writer joked he "may have to kill myself" after his repeated criticism of the US leader led to Trump taking action on the social media site.
King regularly hits out at Trump on Twitter.
On Tuesday, hours before he revealed he had been blocked, he wrote: "Trump's cabinet offers a postgraduate-level course in ass-kissing."
