Write with one person in mind, your Ideal Reader, the person you most want to impress with your writing.įor King, it’s his wife. You can’t please all readers all the time. No one wants that and they’ll put your book down quickly if they feel that way. Your reader is your friend and you need to treat them as such. Not because you don’t know bigger words, but because you don’t need to show off. Just write, whether you want to or not, whether you have the time or not. King writes daily and puts out a phenomenal word count when doing so. Writing is like a muscle: use it or lose it. We’ve all heard this advice a million times, even from our fearless leader here at The Write Practice, Joe Bunting. (Incidentally, most rich people read extensively. Personally, I don’t shun the television entirely, as I think something can be gained from studying shows and movies for their story just like you would any other story form.

I’m going to take you through what I’ve learned from King after years of reading his fiction and poring over On Writing like it held the key to the universe’s mysteries. (My muse has since decided that wasn’t the best course for me and has gone off in a different direction.)
I even mimicked him for a while in my own writing. What I do know is that King’s books have taught me more about writing than any other author’s work. I’m not going to pretend I could ever write as well or as prolifically as King.
