I started reading Stephen King's On Writing this week. In the second forward of the book, King proclaims, "I'll tell you right now that every aspiring writer should read The Elements of Style." (by William Strunk Jr. and E. B. White). Now most serious writers probably know of this book, but being a "noob", I had never heard of it. So I have added "Strunk & White" to my list of must reads. If Stephen King, a best selling writer of Science Fiction and Fantasy, recommends a book by E. B. White who wrote Stuart Little, one of the best known books to have a mouse as its lead character, how can I not put it on my reading list? ;)
