Stephen King Mini Stories

My favorite story out of the 5 mini stories by Stephen King was "Earliest Memory". This story was about the first injury that Stephen could remember having, which was a bee sting followed by 5 broken toes. It was concise and to the point, yet still had enough detail to paint a picture of the scene. I did not feel bored during this story I was eager to see what would happen to the hapless two year old Stephen King. As I was reading I was thinking about Stephen King's views and advice with regard to proper description and found that I enjoyed the amount of detail used in this story, and the fact that I still had room to creatively picture the setting and characters.
