Stephen King Writing Tip

Stephen King writes 2,000 words a day when he’s working on a book. He recommends a minimum of a thousand words a day, six days a week.

He listens to loud heavy metal when he writes. (”All heavy metal is good metal.”)
Stephen King had over 30 rejections for Carrie. One of the rejections said the story was too “dystopian.”

By the time I was 14 (and shaving twice a week whether I needed to or not), the nail in my wall would no longer support the weight of the rejection slips impaled upon it. I replaced the nail with a spike and went on writing.

Thanks, InkyGirl
