An Author and a Quote

Stephen King is the modern-day horror lord. With his books and movies being talked about all the time, it's hard not to know who he is. King was born in Portland, Maine in 1947 and was the second son of his parents, Don and Nellie. Stephen began his career of writing in his school's newspaper called The Maine Campus. Some of his popular titles are, Carrie, The Shining, IT, Christine, and Pet Seminary, to name a few. A quote said by Stephen King that I truly love is: “Kill your darlings, kill your darlings, even when it breaks your egocentric little scribbler’s heart, kill your darlings.” This quote strikes me the most because, what Stephen is saying is that it is important to keep your readers interested. If it means killing off your main character, then do it. Your readers will hate you for it- but love you anyways.
