For me, writing a book is like solving a jigsaw puzzle in my own mind. I love taking the story apart and putting it back together, contemplating different plot twists and character arcs, and landing on a version that feels satisfying and complete.

It depends on what kind of writer's block it is! If I'm feeling stuck on a plot point or a character motivation, a long walk usually gives me the mental space to work it out. If I'm paralyzed by my own self-doubt, the best (and only) cure that I've found is to force myself to write through it. Fortunately, the quality of our work isn't determined by how we feel about it on any given day.

I can tell you one in two words: Traffic. Jam.
