O psaní

If you've never read King before, you should probably steer clear of this book until then. But if you have, the beginning and ending are definitely worth reading. I should mention that I didn't read the book for the writing tips. You can probably find more suitable ones for that cause, I think. The middle section (which is the main part) reminded me a bit of The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross. You learn to paint like Ross, but do you also learn to find your own style? In any case, the anecdotes from King's life are pure gold.

CWs for drugs, murder, suicide.

It's probably the closest we'll get to a proper memoir out of a very interesting & likeable guy, who's utterly unique in the publishing world.

Regardless of whether you are a fan of his actual output or not, you can't question his consistency, and as far as his style and approach to writing, he keeps it simple and straightforward, which for a beginning writer is really useful. And like all Stephen King works, it's an easy read that keeps moving.
