Stephen King Quotes
Many Writing Texts Caution Against Asking Friends To Read Your Stuff, Suggesting You're Not Apt To Get A Very Unbiased Opinion[.] ... It's Unfair, According To This View, To Put A Pal In Such A Position. What Happens If He/she Feels He/she Has To Say, "I'm Sorry, Good Buddy, You've Written Some Great Yarns In The Past But This One Sucks Like A Vacuum Cleaner"?
The Idea Has Some Validity, But I Don't Think An Unbiased Opinion Is Exactly What I'm Looking For. And I Believe That Most People Smart Enough To Read A Novel Are Also Tactful Enough To Find A Gentler Mode Of Expression Than "This Sucks." (Although Most Of Us Know That "I Think This Has A Few Problems" Actually Means "This Sucks," Don't We?)
