On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft - Paperback

Stephen King's half-memoir, half-masterclass: from a trailer in Maine to the bestseller list, then distilled into craft advice that is blunt, practical, and unexpectedly moving.

King tells his story without vanity, then teaches what he's learned. How to write dialogue. How to revise. How to finish. How to handle rejection. How to keep going. It's the book every writing student should read. It's also a window into one of the most productive writers alive and how he thinks about the work.

Writing workshops, English classes, and anyone serious about the craft assign this. It's been assigned for years and it will be for decades.
