How do you deal with writer’s block?

Gavin Oswald A change of routine usually helps. It's easy to get burnt out, so setting aside a day or two for decompression can do wonders.

If I start to feel like I'm slipping--if the words are awkward or it doesn't seem to mesh--I've found that reworking the passage from a different perspective can help to reveal what's actually important and what can be trimmed away or skipped entirely.
It's all a matter of flow. When it seems like you're fighting uphill, it might be time to change the topography.(less)

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Even better if they seek it out for themselves.
I believe that media of any sort will invariably modify a person's understanding and lexicon. It is truly an honor to know that people are willing to let my writing in, to add it to all the other ideas and narratives swimming around their heads. Something might rub off, someone might start using a particular phrase of mine, or change their opinions on some matter or other all because of a few words I put together. At the very least, they might just remember for a time, and that still feels like magic.
If I'm at all a proud man, it's because of my readers. They're the best part of writing. It's nothing without them.(less)

Gavin Oswald liked Bob Mathes's review of All Terribly Natural: Tales of the Macabre: "Great stories of horror and suspense I enjoyed each short story. I have a fondness for Sci-fi and horror with the likes of Dean Koontz and Stephen King. This caliber of writings fall in the page turners I like to read. Great job Gavin." Read more of this review »
