1. Very interesting quotes. I agree with a lot of them… but not that terror is the finest emotion.

   1. I don’t read King’s books because I do not like scary stories, but I like some of his writing quotes. I especially liked “what separates the talented individual from the successful is a lot of hard work.”

      1. GOOD ONE. i AGREE, WE ALL KNOW THAT, AND PERSEVERANCE FURTHERS.. Have you read Dark Tower sires , masterpiece in my opinion. Not much scary stuff – much fascination pulls you on. Simone’s recorded all of these on tapes – hes very good, Outstanding reader.. Cant recall his name this moment and too
         tired to go and look for them. Steve King will tell you how he is.

   1. Thanks, Patti, for your note. It looks like I may have type it!!

3. Thanks Myrah. This is a good one! Agree with Shimon, terror not the finest. I think perhaps erotic and terror are two of the easier emotions to evoke – but nothing is easy.

   1. Thanks, Bruce. We all agree that terror is not the finest. I enjoyed the read. I don’t even read Stephen King. His stuff gives me bad dreams.

4. King can tell you WHO he is.They are good friends.

   1. I need to check it out. Thanks, Bruce.

5. I’ll have to chase it down. Haven’t read it. Certainly haven’t heard his tapes.

6. I have read his book on writing and learned a lot. I also am not a reader of his books, but he has a lot to say about the craft of writing.
