Can you please tell me how to form the possesive of a name ending in "s"? I was taught in school to put an apostrophe after the final s. Recently I read Stephen King's book "On Writing". He commands the reader to always use " 's ". I used my old doctor's name Cavins in a story. Which is correct: Cavins' or Cavins's to show possession?

Thanks for the link. I joined Renderosity to post my drawings but my primary ambition has always been writing sci fi. I scanned the articles and already have learned a couple of things about convincing readers to believe the unbelievable.
