"Being swept away by a combination of great story and great writing -- being flattened, in fact -- is part of every writer's necessary formation. You cannot hope to sweep someone else away by the force of your writing until it has been done to you." -- Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft, p. 141

A very good book -- probably the only King book I ever read that didn't give me nightmares!
So true. So very very true.
Sigh....gonna have to add that book to my library now. See why it's so big!
(I need help...... ; )
Pam, that's my exact experience. :o)
Cherie, at least you're expanding your house, right? ;o)
