Title: As good as it gets!
Product review: King's new book is an outstanding writing manual, although King himself will be the first to say it's not a "manual" at all. It's like driving across the country with the best writer in the univerwe and having a bull session about his life and writing. Two great things: one, King not only shows you examples of bad writing, he tells you WHY it's bad. Two, he shows a blue-pencil job he did on his own story. The minor changes make an incredible difference in the readability and flow of the story. This book is a brief autobiography plus a treatise on what ails much of the world of writing today. And, if you've ever attended writing seminars or taken college classes in the subject, you will know his complaints and jabs are right on. I only wish the book could've been 500+ pages. You'll LOVE it!
