La cosa migliore dell'essere uno scrittore?
La cosa più bella è avere un rapporto speciale con i propri personaggi. Considerarli come le proprie creature.
E poi, senza dubbio, il rapporto con i lettori.
Se uno scrittore pubblica un romanzo mette in mostra un pezzetto personale di sé, è come se desse libero accesso alla propria anima e questo è sicuramente un modo che permette a scrittori e lettori di legare fra di loro.

If a writer publishes a novel he shows a personal piece of itself. It's like he gave free access to his soul and this is definitely a way that allows writers and readers to link to each other. .

I read the past chapter and I try to get into character's life more than I normally do.
Usually I write with some song on the background, but when I have writer's block I need quiet and nobody has to speak to me and I try to focus just on my story. Sometimes is hard because it happened that I can't focus and things become more frustrating.
But it could happen that after a while I can overcome writer's block, even without special efforts. I just like what I write and then I'm encouraged to move forward.
