"you can, you should, and if you're brave enough to start, you will."
― Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft
"Description begins in the writer's imagination, but should finish in the reader's."
― Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft
"Writing isn't about making money, getting famous, getting dates, getting laid, or making friends. In the end, it's about enriching the lives of those who will read your work, and enriching your own life, as well. It's about getting up, getting well, and getting over. Getting happy, okay? Getting happy."
― Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft
"Amateurs sit and wait for inspiration, the rest of us just get up and go to work."
― Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft
"So okay― there you are in your room with the shade down and the door shut and the plug pulled out of the base of the telephone. You've blown up your TV and committed yourself to a thousand words a day, come hell or high water. Now comes the big question: What are you going to write about? And the equally big answer: Anything you damn well want."
― Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft
