1. What primary point do you think King is making about an author's use of details?

2. In your own words, what does King mean when he says "telepathy"?

3. Write down three sentences or phrases that speak to you in some way--that say something important to you about writing or that maybe even make you think about writing a little differently. After you write them down, briefly explain why chose each of those words/phrases.

4. Why do you think King chose to address the reader directly--in second person--with the use of "you"? After all, he could've just written about what writing means to him and never specifically address the reader.
