What Stephen King has to say about writing

[Luís]

The master of Suspense wrote extensively on writing. Some examples here: http://azevedosreviews.wordpress.com/...

He does write quite a lot about writing - and of course, "The Shining" is about writing and writer's block.

The movie is about Indian massacres, moon landing and Nazism, though :)

Oh right, I heard something along those lines - and I guess it could also be about having writer's block in writing about Indian massacres, the moon landing and Nazism?

He had writers block while writing it, then got the idea to kill someone(or some people).

I think he inspired all TV shows of today..... When in doubt about your plot, kill someone off.

It was kind of a joke. That was some of the over-reading that people did of the movie.

“kill your darlings, kill your darlings, even when it breaks your egocentric little scribbler’s heart, kill your darlings”

If so, then he's most certainly the father to George R. R. Martin's "Fire and Ice" series.

These are all fun. Better still, get his book On Writing, which is where a lot of this stuff came from. It's on my favorites page.

Mr King, he is the Master! And that's because he loves his reader. And he also loves his characters, that's why we empathize with them, we cry, we feel srared when they do or happy when they are happy. Sometimes I have arguments with people who say they don't like Stephen King because he is a horror writer. But he is not! Well, at least he is not entirely a horror writer. He is, first of all, a great artist of human soul. He only writes horror stories to depict the very bottom of our being, to reveal the darkest and most hidden sides of our nature. It's people he writes about! And there are always good and bad characters in his book, and there are always human dramas - you just have to look deeper. Has any one read JOYLAND yet? That's a wonderful story of love and devotion!

I agree "On Writing" had some really practical, sage advice.

I know that whenever I get hung up, it helps to kill someone. The problem is disposing of the bodies.

That's not from Stephen King. That wasn't in the book.

His book, Danse Macabre is almost exclusively about writing. I recommend it to anyone who writes dark fiction or horror.
