Stephen King - On Writing

Published on 10 July 2025 at 16:48

As a new writer, for me, Stephen King - On Writing gives the most liberating advice I have been able to find.  He demystified the literary industry teasing it apart and clarifying it for what it is.  King erased any self-doubt I may have had, freeing me up to tell my stories through my writing in my style.  Anyone contemplating (or currently) writing would do well to read this book.

"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.
