How do you deal with writer’s block?

How do…moreI have been asked that a lot and my response is always the same. I never have experienced writer's block. You may scoff at this but it is true. How do I do it you say? I do not write from a detailed outline. I write the way we all read. I experience and live the story first hand. I never know what will be waiting for me around the next bend or on the next page. I may discover a new character or adventure or landscape. I then need to understand how it impacts the story, the other characters and why it exists and where it came from. This means I live the story as I write it. I can't wait to get back to writing just as you can't wait to get back to a great book and find out what is next. It keeps it constantly exciting and full of adventure for me. I keep notes by me all the time so as I wake up in the middle of the night or during the day I have thoughts or new characters that occur to me, I write it down and can come back later and add them in. Inspiration and insight cannot be scheduled. It happens and I always try to be ready when it does. Then when I sit down at the keyboard the adventure floods in and I can't wait to see what is coming next. It is really exciting.(less)

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Clark Rich Burbidge I love meeting people. I meet them as I write in the form of my characters. I meet them in my appearances and get to talk with them about their lives …moreI love meeting people. I meet them as I write in the form of my characters. I meet them in my appearances and get to talk with them about their lives and how my books and reading in general help them rise up. There is nothing better than discovering the positive impact your works have had on someone else. (less)
