Stephen King’s ‘On Writing’ Turns the Memoir Into a Masterclass [The Losers’ Club Podcast]

“This is not an autobiography. It is, rather, a kind of curriculum vitae…”

The Losers’ Club has arrived at The University of Orono-Maine, where the bell has rung and class is in session. Who’s the teacher? Why, the one and only Stephen King.

In the first of two episodes dedicated to King’s 2000 treatise On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft, the Losers take notes from the Master of Horror and ponder whether he’s also the Master of The Craft. Together, they discuss how King wields a masterclass from his memories, connect his many anecdotes to his countless works in King’s Dominion, and wrestle with their own trials and tribulations when it comes to writing themselves.

Stream the episode below and return next week when the Losers round out their coverage of On Writing with a discussion on King’s concept of The Toolbox and the myriad lessons he provides on the craft. For further adventures, join the Losers’ Club over long days and pleasant nights via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, RadioPublic, Acast, Google Podcasts, and RSS. You can also unlock hundreds of hours of exclusive content in The Barrens (Patreon).
