Stephen Edwin King was born in Portland, Maine in 1947, the second son of Donald and Nellie Ruth Pillsbury King.

Stephen King is well-known for such works as Carrie, Salem’s Lot, Pet Cemetary, The Shawshank Redemption, and many, many more.

I love to read his works, but I have to admit that sometimes I spend more time in the dictionary referencing his words than I do actual reading.  He is a very diverse and gifted writer who provokes his readers into thought.

One of the best books I’ve read is, “On Writing” by Stephen.  It was written on the craft of writing and is full of inspiration and knowledge.  I suggest every writer should own a copy and read it often.
