For our next book club selection, we'll be reading On Writing, a Memoir on the Craft by Stephen King. This is not a regular memoir but rather a guide on writing with some memoir aspects. This book is highly regarded by writers of all genres, regardless of how they feel about his other books.

Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer's craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King's advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported, near-fatal accident in 1999—and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery. Brilliantly structured, friendly and inspiring, On Writing will empower and entertain everyone who reads it—fans, writers, and anyone who loves a great story well told.
