On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft

This book is definitely now a favorite of mine. There are so many ways in which Stephen King describes writing that fit my own views. He is straight, to the point, and doesn't waste countless pages drilling grammar and punctuation into your head like some writers do when describing the process. I recommend this book to any starting writer out there. It took me a long time to finish this book, but that was simply because I would read it a little at a time, giving my brain time to have the thoughts and ideas sink in. And you know what? After finishing this book my writing is flying, and nearly everyday more and more is being put to paper/word documents. A must read!
