Great Books: Stephen King On Writing

 
 
 
Hi Hi, today I brought another great book about scriptwriting. Well not a conventional one, but Stephen King is not conventional anyway.
This is an interesting book mostly about the writer and not the writing. Plenty of humour and swearing, Stephen King tell us about his own journey as a writer. I may say "On Writing" is closer to a Autobiography than a technical book.
If you want to learn how to be a writer/scriptwriter, don't expect to much from the book. This is more about life experience.

 
Stephen King
 
Half of the book is his own story of life, the other half is how he writes. The last chapter is about his experience when he was almost killed by a driver. He was preparing to write this book when he was hit by a van. But I'm not going to tell anything more, he survived to complete this book. You have to read it. It's fun, ironic and... interesting.
 
You can buy it here at amazon.
