There is a lot of writing advice in the world. Sometimes it’s difficult to figure out who to listen to and who to ignore. I can say with absolute certainty that On Writing by Stephen King is full of advice to take to heart. This book is always on my packing list. I can’t say for sure where my toothbrush is, but my copy of On Writing is on the top shelf of my bedroom bookcase, fourth book from the left.
If you haven’t read it, check out this infographic by Marko Saric. And then buy, steal or borrow a copy, because, honestly, this is a must-read for anyone who wants to write.
I want more stuff like this in my inbox.

Hi! The staff here at Stuff Writers Like posted this nifty piece of content. We didn't give it a byline, because, well, maybe we didn't write it. But we do like it. Please allow us to take this opportunity to introduce ourselves. Stuff Writers Like is powered by a motley crew of writers, misfits and grammar deviants. They say you have to know the rules before you can break them. Or as Mark Twain said, "Get your facts first then you may distort them as you please." Stop by our About page and consider joining us. We don't bite—unless nibbling counts.
