Pros And Cons Of Writing Stephen King

Stephen King holds the position that reading a bad novel can be just as useful for a writer as a “good writing school.” Being able to recognize “bad” writing in itself has many merits. He believes this because reading poor quality literature can teach someone what not to do in their own writing. This information can be used to craft more novel stories that don’t make use of tired tropes or trite concepts. A book that does many things wrong can be infinitely more helpful to a writer’s technique than a book that does everything right. With flaws in a book, a reader can train their brain to detect them and then apply that detection to their own writing. They can also tell what doesn’t work, and simply avoid doing those things. A book that is
I try to experience many different forms of storytelling, but one of my biggest drawbacks is that I do so much preparation beforehand to try and avoid bad experiences. I will look up reviews and let them strongly influence my decisions. I do this because there are so many different options, and I want to limit myself to the best of the best. This is counterproductive in a few ways. First of all, the “best of the best” is completely subjective, and someone’s favorite book may have a terrible consensus from the general public, so I may be limiting myself from things that I could love that others do not. Secondly, how am I supposed to accurately judge anything if I am limiting myself from the proper context by avoiding what other people think is “mediocre” or “bad?” How can a book or a movie be “good” if I have no basis to judge it by, and how many things have I labeled “bad” that are actually a decent effort when considered in the context of the medium? Finally, while I may be constantly inspired by many of these things, I will never make tremendous improvements with my writing and critiques unless I open myself up to everything the world has to offer. In my attempts to only enjoy what I experience, I may be hampering my perceptive skills or writing skills, and I could also be restraining myself from truly enjoying something in the context that it should be enjoyed. The only real solution, seeing as
I do love to read fiction, but I’ll admit that I read very little of it. Most of my reading happens on the internet, and it is of primarily editorial work. My writing, then, works better as something analytical, than it does as a creative piece of fiction. When I attempt to write fiction, I am at a loss for ideas. I have plenty of inspiration from great stories, but I lack the breadth of experience or observation to write my own fiction. Not to mention my personality type, which is cold and logical in a way that doesn’t lend itself to the creation of engaging fiction. Although you may bring up someone like Stanley Kubrick, who was a very cold, logical, perfectionist, but managed to create great works of art through his films. He, at least, was an idea man, and had the determination to execute them perfectly. You may notice, however, that his films lack the type of relatable characters or emotional warmth that you come to expect in most fiction. It is a very distant style that resulted in mixed reception throughout his entire career. It takes a special type of genius to make beautiful art from a logical
