On Writing, Post 4: How I Can Learn From King's Novel

Stephen King has been writing for years. He's much older than I and has been writing since he was much younger than I. I love the fact that he wrote this book because he's passing on his tricks of the trade to this generation of writers and we probably need it. Having been the first generation to grow up on the internet and TV, our experiences are way different than King's--including that most of us probably chose to waste our Saturdays watching cartoons for as much time as King spent writing a series for his brother's magazine. Having read experiences of King when he was younger than I, I certainly feel that I haven't lived up to my potential thus far. Here's hoping I can fix that.
