Bag of Bones (Stephen King) Easter Egg - Ray Garraty

When the main character of the novel begins writing his own book, Stephen King mentions a character in the book-within-a-book named Ray Garraty (I think Ray Garraty is the protagonist's childhood friend). Well, back in the 70's, Stephen King wrote a few books under the name Richard Bachman. One of these books was called "The Long Walk." The main character in "The Long Walk" was named none other than Ray Garraty.
