Friends who have known that I wanted to write have often recommended "On Writing" by Stephen King. For some reason, I had not gotten around to reading it.
I should have known that I would have liked it!
Early this year, I joined WriYe. It is another group of writing folks are polishing their craft. They have a sub-group at GoodReads called "WriYers Read Too." For January, we are discussing "On Writing." I got my version on Kindle. It's a great read, even if you don't want to write.
The relationship between little Stevie King and his older brother reminds me of another book that I enjoyed, but can't recall the name of. Texas State Library for the Blind and Physically Disabled sent me an audio book that was the memoirs of a guy who grew up in the twenties or thirties in Texas. His older brother was Bedford, and he had earned the nickname of "Whoa. " Kathy laughed at that book until we hurt!
