I still think that of all the people doing top fiction today, John D. MacDonald is the best.He was my model as a kid. If there are people out there that want to write, all you need to do is read 20 of his stories to get an idea what it takes to make a story kick over.

The only wat to get better at writing is to write. And read.
Stephen King

If you're just starting out as a writer, you could do worse than strip your television's electric plug-wire, wrap a spike around it, and then stick it back into the wall. See what blows, and how far. Just an idea.
Stephen King

In the year 2025, the best men don't run for president, they run for their lives. . . .
Stephen King
Image
I see things, that's all. Write enough stories and every shadow on the floor looks like a footprint every line in the dirt like a secret message.

Has it ever occurred to you that parents are nothing but overgrown kids until their children drag them into adulthood? Usually kicking and screaming?
Stephen King

Language does not always have to wear a tie and lace-up shoes. The object of fiction isn't grammatical correctness but to make the reader welcome and then tell a story... To make him/her forget, whenever possible, that he/she is reading a story at all.
Stephen King

Every man or woman who loves Him, they hate Him too, because He's a hard God, a jealous God.
Stephen King
Image
And in the gunslinger's mind, those words echoed: You dare not.
Stephen King

No one ever does live happily ever after, but we leave the children to find that out for themselves.
Stephen King

What you don’t know, you can’t tell. Or made to tell.
Stephen King
Image
It was the possibility of darkness that made the day seem so bright.
Stephen King
Image
When I was a kid I believed everything I was told, everything I read, and every dispatch sent out by my own overheated imagination. This made for more than a few sleepless nights, but it also filled the world I lived in with colors and textures I would not have traded for a lifetime of restful nights.

To write is human, to edit is divine.
Stephen King
Image
You cannot friend a hawk, they said, unless you are a hawk yourself, alone and only a sojourner in the land, without friends or the need of them.
Stephen King
Image
They say that loving eyes can never see, but that's a fool's axiom. Sometimes, they see too much
Stephen King

What I'd show you is much more bizarre than anything we have looked at so far, and I warn you in advance that the first impulse will be to laugh. That's all right. Laugh if you must. Just don't take your eye off what you see, for even in your imagination, here is a creature who can do you damage.
Stephen King
Image
You couldn't get hold of the things you'd done and turn them right again. Such a power might be given to the gods, but it was not given to women and men, and that was probably a good thing. Had it been otherwise, people would probably die of old age still trying to rewrite their teens.

And didn't they say that, although curiosity killed the cat, satisfaction brought the beast back?
Stephen King
Image
I'm most afraid of losing my mind. You lose your identity, your sense of who you are, where you are.
