I recognize that it never -- not even ten books later! -- ever goes away. So I just try to ignore the inner censor. John Gregory Dunne once said that the best definition he knows for writers block is "a failure of nerve." Again, it is the sitting down each day whether I feel like it or not -- the daily routine -- that makes the biggest difference.
