Editorial Review (from Amazon.com)
"Long live the King" hailed Entertainment Weekly upon the publication of Stephen King's On Writing. Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer's craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King's advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported near-fatal accident in 1999 -- and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery. Brilliantly structured, friendly and inspiring, On Writing will empower and entertain everyone who reads it -- fans, writers, and anyone who loves a great story well told.User Reviews (1) Login or create an account to write a review.
J. Kaye Oldner thinks this book is Worth Reading.
If you're an aspiring writer and looking for words of encouragement, this isn't it. Great insight into the man behind the horror books.
