Stephen King "On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft"

While reading Stephen King's "On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft," I learned and realized a lot of interesting things. He thinks and writings in such an interesting and different way than most people would. His ideas are all so new and unique from other people's ideas. I was shocked to read about how many hours and days Stephen King actually spends writing. He also makes sure that he writes thousands of words each day. I don't think I could personally do that, especially everyday. I think I would honestly become bored and I probably wouldn't be able to think about new and interesting stories to write about. To be a successful writer, I feel that you definately need to have a very creative mind and have to have been a person who has experienced quite a bit. I feel that if I would have to write day in and day out, I would go crazy, sitting in the same room, in the same chair, trying to figure out what to write about. Some people are definately born to write and do this all their lives, but I don't think I'm that person. I definately enjoy writing, but it depends on what I'm writing about and who I'm writing for.

new indoor ski/snowboard facility

I have been thinking about building a new indoor ski and snowboard facility in southern New Hampshire where people can ski/snowboard anytime of the year that they want and in any weather. The chair lifts and lights will be run by solar panels that will be located on top of the facility. There are still many details that I still need to think of for this project, but it will definately be a great new attraction for New Hampshire. We also will be getting a lot of people coming from around the country to ski here. This will be an awesome attraction that hopefully many people will enjoy and I'm excited to get started on coming up with new ideas for this facility.
