So far (2022), those books include The Kingkiller Series by Rothfuss and the Stormlight Archives by Sanderson. I still haven't finished the Stormlight Archives yet. It's 1200+ pages per book.

Also, I can't remember ever having writer's block. I'm either in the mood to write, or I'm distracted by something else. This may include reading, programming, creating videos (e.g., tiktok), or a variety of other tasks that my brain will prioritize.
