I have lived much of my life through books, so perhaps a chronological list of books I have read is more relevant than anything else.

Tintin
Asterix and Oblix

Hardy Boys
Nancy Drew

The Day of the Jackal

Shogun

Lord of the Rings

These books have marked the various stages of my formal education. Writing is just the next step, when you you don't want the story to end.

An insightful question. AI stands at the intersection of reason and reality — not just processing facts, but redefining how we understand truth itself.

I once heard John Grisham say that he wished he had been like Jake, the protagonist in "A Time to Kill". I must say Mr. Grisham, I wouldn't wish that experience on anyone.
However I must admit that, it's much easier to write about something you know q

Victor Korda liked an answer from Suede D. Goldmann:
Suede D. Goldmann
I just don't! haha
Ok, let's get serious...
First off — I deny the existence of writer’s block. That said, denial doesn’t always work! So whenever I’m stuck, I take it as a sign that I need to unplug.
Second off — I read. Simple as that. I let myself be See Suede’s answer.
" Hi Yara,
You should know that a story or a book is never really finished.

“The cheat has no peace, and the thief, no sleep.
The murderer will suffer more than the murdered.
The liar will tire, and the lie retired.
But the truth will never grow weary,
Nor the bearer ever dirty.”
Victor Korda, Journey Of A True Blade: Assassins In The Refuge

“Neither the rise of friends nor the demise of enemies, are worthy of obsession.”

“Our life is like a land journey, too even and easy and dull over long distances across the plains, too hard and painful up the steep grades; but, on the summits of the mountain, you have a magnificent view--and feel exalted--and your eyes are full of happy tears--and you want to sing--and wish you had wings! And then--you can't stay there, but must continue your journey--you begin climbing down the other side, so busy with your footholds that your summit experience is forgotten.”
Lloyd C. Douglas, The Robe
