Thank you! You just made me dig out my dog-eared copy of “On Writing” – I had forgotten how much I love that book. Yes, King does get underestimated (although you can’t argue with his commercial success!). And sure, some of his stories are a bit formula. But at the same time, that tone and feel mastery is always there.

It *is* good copy!

I always think King gets underestimated as a writer; I’m a big fan, and “On Writing” remains my favorite how-to book anywhere. Really, what makes it great is exactly what you talk about here – not especially being spooky, but having a mastery of his message (no matter what he’s talking about). It’s personal, to the point, and right-on, more often than not.

It’s good copy.
