Episode 69-On Writing-A Memoir of the Craft, by Stephen King
I have loved this book for so long. Every few years when I re read it, it is usually because I am hoping it will inspire me. It always does. I feel like Stephen King is hanging out with me telling life stories and talking shop. It is, of course, TELEPATHY! (If you know you know.) I hadn't read lots of his work but that doesn't matter. He is the teacher that wants you to use your tools, write what you know, and tell the truth. If you like to write, want to write, or were writing but are now stuck, go get this book. Message me and let me know how it made you feel. I got to talk about it with Ellie Snyder, Michigan comedian on the rise who is currently shopping her first finished novel around and working on a second. She has been living the lessons and it was great to have someone who had as many favorite parts as I do. Sigh. Thank you Stephen.
