On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft by Steven King. A Review. Book 18 out of 52

“Description begins in the writer’s imagination, but should finish in the reader’s.”I had no idea how much I needed to read this book. “On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft” by Steven King is a tale of tales. I tried to go into this book with an open mind, fearing that it was going to be a writers guide. Afraid of what that would bring out of me. But this is so much more. King is a master of this craft, and it is utterly refreshing to see what has driven him as an author. Yes, even the rougher times.Transparently, King walks through the struggles, missteps, and flaws in an attempt to show perseverance. Along the way imparting knowledge about drive, application, and voice. In a very real, and very raw way, this book put even more pressure on me to write.Oh, the crazy journey of my reading challenge. Self-improvement, introspection, igniting passion, correcting vision, and so much more. It seems that this is another book that you should have on your shelves. Who knows in what ways it will inspire you?I am giving “On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft” by Steven King a sold 4 out of 5 stars.
