I love King's On Writing. I was surprised to find, when I read it the first time, that he and I have a lot of the same M.O. Spontaneous ideas that pop into one's head in the shower. Check. Not knowing where it's going or how it's going to end when you sit down to write. Check. Having the characters tell you where they're going -- even if it overrules your previous ideas. Check. His Muse is vastly different than my own, though. Mine sweet-talks and gets into every aspect of my life. But it's amazing how many writers mention having a Muse now, whereas just a few years ago, they might be afraid to be perceived as batty.
