And I write like Stephen King, a writer I do not read, having attempted
one book and wound up throwing it across the room. So I am puzzled.

Talk about writers I do not read. I never heard of this guy. I put in the
first three pages of my novel in progress and it says I wrtie like:
David Foster Wallace !!!
Who is he? I never heard of him. Is this good or bad?
Wikipedia
#include <grainofsalt.std>
says,
"David Foster Wallace (February 21, 1962 - September 12, 2008) was
an American author of novels, essays, and short stories, and a
professor at Pomona College in Claremont, California. He was
widely known for his 1996 novel Infinite Jest, which Time
included in its All-Time 100 Greatest Novels list (covering the
period 1923-2006).
A lit'ry type, in other words. I haven't read him either. I had
heard of Cory Doctorow, who writes some SF, though I haven't read
him.
