If I don't believe in it, it can't really affect me. There are times when the words are more difficult, and often they are incoherent, but that's just getting the mush out of the way so that I can get back to the good stuff. If you think you're blocked, my advice is to write something else for a bit: a letter, a journal or diary, maybe just some thoughts about something else. The act of doing that always clears some of the built up detritus in my brain and allows me to find the words I need to get back going.

I think the real key is to not put so much pressure on yourself to hit your goals - or better yet modify them down - when you don't feel like writing. All progress is progress.

All this goes out the window if you're on a deadline. Then it doesn't matter if you're blocked or not. The editor is waiting and if you don't deliver on time, the work better be stellar and you need to be a nice person.(less)

The Three-Body Problem by Cixin Liu; The City We Became by N.K. Jemisin; Harlan Ellison's Shatterday; the latest Haruki Murakami collection and a bunch more. Today, though, I got Jonathan Maberry's Kagen the Damned and I'm diving right into it because it's so different from what I'm writing.(less)
