For me, it's not so much writer's block as it is forcing myself to sit down and write! Once writing, I usually don't worry about what comes out because that will get addressed later in the process.

It could be anything. The Diary Of A Novice Investor was driven by a family situation and clearly defined by the situation. My other books stem from random ideas that the brain latches onto. The trick is making the time to flesh out the storylines.

There are ten book ideas in various stages of development. The second installment of The Diary Of A Novice Investor has been fleshed out and still requires completion prior to being submitted for editing. The second one that is farthest along has a working title of Raven Tales: Where Do Books Come From? This is fiction targeting young readers with animal only characters.

Read. Emulate your favorite authors. Understand the difficulty in actually making sales. If nothing else, write for yourself.

The ability to tell a story. It's creation, editing, and completion. The process is uniquely human.
