Love to write? Thinking of dabbling in fiction, trying your hand at horror, or even penning your own memoir? Whether you're struggling to put ideas on the page, or want a fresh take on an older piece of work - King fan or no - On Writing will help you to develop a mastery of the craft.

On Writing's uniqueness is that it doesn't read like a drawn-out instruction manual the way many "How To Write" books often will, because On Writing isn't your traditional English or Writing book. Part autobiography - in which King reveals much about his early life and career - part anecdotal advice - complete with tips on how to start your own writing process - and all-around entertaining, On Writing will keep you turning the pages and even taking notes along the way.
