Sean Fletcher Hi Gary!
Most of my books are entirely clean of any swearing, and none of my books include F-bombs or sex. My more recent series like the Paranormal Outcasts series and my upcoming series have the occasional swear word, but they are few and far between.

If you are looking for something entirely clean, I suggest my Heir of Dragons series. I also believe my Mages of New York and Darkness Within series are entirely clean as well, however there may be one or two swear words in there. But like before, none of my series have anything more graphic than the occasional swear word.
Hope this helps!
Sean
Sean Fletcher Read a lot and write a lot. Admittedly I don't do the first as much as I should given that writing is now my full-time job. But you have to read to learn, and you have to write to practice. Write consciously, working on improving your craft. It's better to have ten years of exponentially growing experience than twenty years of no growth.
Sean Fletcher The freedom of creativity! Writing isn't the only medium of course, but even as a child I used to tell myself stories. Stories about random passersby, stories while I waited at the doctor's, stories in class when I should have been paying attention (that's actually how I got a lot of my first book written). So for me translating these stories into writing was pretty simple. Writing can be as simple or complicated as you want. It leaves you free to explore infinite amounts of worlds, peoples, and situations, all from your imagination or real life.
Sean Fletcher I've never actually had what I'd consider 'writer's block'. I have moments where I'm struggling with fitting all the pieces of the story together in just the right place, but usually I'm able to write my way to a solution. A piece of advice (I think it was Hemingway?) has always stuck out to me: always leave a bit of what you want to write for the next day. Never write everything you can for that day. In that way, I'll always have an idea waiting for me when I return.
