How do you deal with writer’s block?
Nathan Luff Walk away and come back. If it persists, I steal all my ideas from other authors and change the character names – works every time.

Denise Cramsie Nathan, I can't believe you only gave The Midnight Library one star. I'd be interested in your comments as I thoroughly enjoyed it. Such an original premise which I felt worked very well. Denise Cramsie.
