On Writing

When you start reading the book, I highly recommend you take the time to read the forwards.  There are three of them--each one progressively shorter.

Stephen King has a great sense of humor, and the book is highly enjoyable.  His writing is amazing--here is a quote:  "Eula-Beulah [his babysitter when he was four] prepared me for literary criticism.  After having a two-hundred-pound babysitter fart on your face and yell Pow!, The Village Voice [a New York paper that reviews novels, poetry, and short stories] holds few terrors."  He mixes honesty and humor like that all through the memoir as he takes the reader on a tour of becoming a writer.

I look forward to reading your blogs.  I will continue posting as well.  Happy reading.
