Different Seasons (1982) is a collection of four Stephen King novellas with a more serious tone than the horror fiction for which King is famous. The novellas are:

Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption

Apt Pupil

The Body

The Breathing Method

All were adapted to the big screen with the exception of The Breathing Method. At the ending of the book, there is also a brief afterword, which King wrote on January 4, 1982. In it, he explains when he wrote the four novellas, as well as how his agents expressed concern, he would be "written off" as someone who only wrote horror.

In 1995, Singer asked his friend and screenwriter Brandon Boyce to write a spec script adapting the novella. Boyce recalled the writing process, "I thought it was a great stageplay, actually... two people, pretty much in a house talking. My script was completely on spec, so, if it didn't work out, at least I'd have a writing sample."
