On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft by Stephen King (2000) Scribner
The author reflects on his childhood and how that influenced
his writing style of choice of stories.
He describes his writing habits and the problems he has experienced,
including when he was hit by a car.
There are two bonuses: his sons Joe (Hill), an award-winning horror
writer himself, and Owen King. The best
bit being about how as children, they would ask their father to tell them a
story each night (no wonder they grew up to write and edit horror themselves).
We listened to the audio version read by King himself - it's well worth a listen.
