Shelley Schanfield
I'm fortunate in that for the first two books of my trilogy, it was never a question of facing a blank screen with nothing to say. It's more about getting to the truth of the story and telling it in a way that does the tale justice. That can sometimes stop me.
But ideas—for scenes, for sentences, for additional research—they bubble up on their own. It's catching them that can give me trouble.
