" Science is beginning to encroach on every level of our volition". And to me, that is a frightening social concept. It doesn't have anything to do with the right to have an abortion verses the right to life. It has to do with the ability of science to keep things alive and the ability of science to really control our lives.
Stephen KingSilent white light filled the world. And the righteous and unrighteous alike were consumed in that holy fire.
Stephen KingI write about things that scare me. I've never written a snake story in my life. I myself have never written a story about snakes because they don't scare me. I write about rats because they scare the hell out of me.
Stephen KingSome of this bookโperhaps too muchโhas been about how I learned to do it. Much of it has been about how you can do it better. The rest of itโand perhaps the best of itโis a permission slip: you can, you should, and if you're brave enough to start, you will. Writing is magic, as much the water of life as any other creative art. The water is free. So drink. Drink and be filled up.
