What I learnt from Stephen King 'On Writing'




    Your life experiences shape what you write. Gather more. Reach out, within. Then expand the experience to imagination.


    Find your nook; your go to place, for reading and writing. Nothing ostentatious. Nothing distracting. A place which allows your mind to travel to a state of hypnosis.


    Reading is a non-negotiable.

       
      Write each day, every day.


      "It ain't how much you've got, honey, it's how you use it!" Use words that come naturally.


      Keep your sentences simple. Put your reader, first.  Be understood.
