Bill Williams Nick and Nora Charles were created by Dashiell Hammett for the novel The Thin Man. He is a retired private detective and she is wealthy and something of a thrill-seeker. Nora talks him into his old business from time to time. They have adventures in between cocktails.

Nick and Nora are known for casual drinking and witty banter. I'm a fan of both.
Bill Williams I deal with Writer's Block by reading something extreme, either a great book or a simply awful book. Great books are inspirational and terrible books are an ego boost.

I'm a member of a writing group called Clockwork Storybook. Someone, Bill Willingham if I remember correctly, came up with the concept of the IDEA BUCKET. As fast as we empty the bucket by getting the ideas out and onto the page, more come rushing in.

If all of that fails, just get that deck of cards John August created.
