Writing by Stephen King is
a book that you won't want to miss. It is full of King's personal
journey as a writer and it is full of good suggestions and recommendations.
Whether you are a fan of his or not I wouldn't miss this one!
Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg is another great
book about writing. Before I had any thoughts about writing I read
it--and you should too! Goldberg has a new book out called Thunder
& Lightening: Cracking Open The Writer's Craft 2001. Don't miss
these others by her either: Wild
Mind: Living The Writer's Life 1990 or Living
