First Thoughts

I love to write. Writing is my passion,and while I've faltered on the frequency of my writing, I still do my best to keep up with it.
One of the greatest writers I have ever had the pleasure to read is Stephen King. While he is my favorite writer, he in not my favorite author. I say this because I love the way he writes; the way he manipulates his words into detailed images gives me the chills. But, alas, I cannot call him my favorite author, because I cannot read all his books. His dark, twisted, horror novels are enough to keep me awake for years. I would never be able to close my eyes for fear again. But the books of his that I have read have left me in awe. Never have I wanted to take a highlighter to a book before and light up almost an entire page to remember my favorite descriptions. While I may not be able to read everything of Stephen King's, I will enjoy what I can of his and revel in the beauty of his words.
