“Long live the King” hailed Entertainment Weekly upon publication of Stephen King’s On Writing. Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer’s craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King’s advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported, near-fatal accident in 1999—and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery.

Language defines us as a species, placing humans head and shoulders above even the most proficient animal communicators. But it also beguiles us with its endless mysteries, allowing us to ponder why different languages emerged, why there isn't simply a single language, how languages change over time and whether that's good or bad, and how languages die out and become extinct.

Most people think the way to write a best seller is to have a lot of talent and even more luck. As you will learn, there is a recipe for success, and luck may be the least important ingredient in creating a best seller. No one has cracked the code better than James Scott Bell. A best-selling author himself, and the author of the number-one best seller for writers, Plot & Structure, Mr. Bell has been teaching the principles of best-selling fiction for over 20 years, principles that apply to any genre or style.

Who doesn’t love a good story? It has been said that within each of us are endless tales to tell, and many of us are eager to let those stories out into the world. Whether the pen touches the paper or the fingers press the computer keys, there’s something vividly romantic about the act of writing stories. But how, exactly, does one start a fiction piece? Do you just sit there and type while the muses whisper sweet nothings in your ear? Author Lauren Bingham is here to provide tips on how to write fiction for folks who are timid, terrified, or somewhere in between.

It's every novelist's greatest fear: pouring their blood, sweat, and tears into writing hundreds of pages only to realize that their story has no sense of urgency, no internal logic, and so is a page-one rewrite. The prevailing wisdom in the writing community is that there are just two ways around this problem: pantsing (winging it) and plotting (focusing on the external plot).

In Joel's Schwartzberg's 10-plus years as a strategic communications trainer, the biggest obstacle he's come across - one that connects directly to nervousness, stammering, rambling, and epic fail - is that most speakers and writers don't have a point. They typically have just a title, a theme, a topic, an idea, an assertion, a catchphrase, or even something much less. This book shows you how to identify your point, leverage it, stick to it, and sell it and how to train others to identify and successfully make their own points.

Worth it.
Would you listen to Complete Creative Writing Course again? Why?
I like the examples. A reviewer says that they didn't like the different voices, but I think if he or she kept listening they would find the other voice intriguing. It was like listening to a radio show with different actors playing a part. I like how the narrators drew me in with examples on how to write. I have so many questions and this audio has answered many of those questions.
What other book might you compare Complete Creative Writing Course to and why?
Sol Stein's On writing comes to mind, but I actually think this audio is better.
Which scene was your favorite?
All of them.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
The Tree of Learning
Any additional comments?
If you like Sol Stein's audio, you'll this one as well.

Different voices distract
What would have made Complete Creative Writing Course better?
I would have had one person doing the reading. Having 4 people read one line each, one right after the other, is very difficult to follow.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Not sure yet.
How could the performance have been better?
Again, multi people readers needs to be handled well. It works if each person reads a section, but these ones seemed o be trying to represent different thoughts.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
I didn't get past the first 40 min. It was disappointing.

Painful from beginning to when I stopped.
I tried with this one. I really did. The multiple narrators was distracting, there was nothing of value in the first 3 hours. It got to the point that I was speeding up the book just to finish it faster. I couldn't suffer through till the end.
