Lord of the Rings - no debate! Middle-Earth is my favourite fictional location. I would give anything to be able to spend some time exploring that world.

I don't believe in Writer's Block, personally. If you have to produce you will produce. It's not all gold the first draft (or the second, or the third, or the twentieth), but something is always better than nothing. I always put something on the page and worry about refining it later.

There is the true-ism "Having written something is amazing, writing is hard." and I find it resonates. I have to get far enough down the rabbit hole to have to be held accountable before I can make real progress on anything.

My current project is something I've been noodling with since about 2014. I always knew the characters names and what they looked like (spoilers: they are superheroes!). I experimented with a short form story about them and now I'm extending their stories and expanding the world.
