It sounds terrible to say but quitting drugs messed up King's writing more than anything else, though it saved his life. The near death experience getting ran over also did a number on his writing for a while.
You can see the decline in quality play out over The Dark Tower series between books where he was on
and when he sobered up, then drop again when he was ran over.
