  • A Dream for Aspiring Writers

    I am not a fan of Stephen King's writing style (I love his content) but I could not put this book down. I was so eager to read how he came up with ideas, how much he writes at a time, and was fascinated with his life story. I am a fond lover of biographies and this delivered an A+ biography and an A+ confidence-boosting writing seminar.
