It's half autobiography and half textbook on being a better writer.

I love that book. I think it's the best thing that King ever wrote. It has helped me with my own writing. Now if I could just do believable dialogue.

In Duma Key...his son-in-law was a rightie ass...and Dad punched him...always thought that was what Stephen King wanted to to do the right wing asshats.

I didn't know he was a recovering addict, truly a prolific writer to this day.

Maybe it was reflecting him at that time?

Zen Pencils takes famous writings/quotations, and illustrates them in comic strip form.

There is some good stuff over there!
