“On Writing” by Stephen King

As I began my foray into writing as a craft, I knew I had huge gaps in my knowledge. What better way to learn than from the masters themselves? Whether you are a fan of Stephen King’s work or the genre he chooses to write in, there’s no denying that the man has skill.

One part memoir, one part writing manual, Stephen King’s “On Writing” will take you through the ups and downs of King’s writing journey. From his nail in the wall heavy with each and every rejection to his launch into fame with “Carrie”, the story is chock full of helpful “rules” that when implimented, turn even the simpliest act of reading into thoughtful learning.
