Nikolas Larum
Over the years, I've learned that "writer's block" is simply a symptom that tells you that you aren't ready to write yet. Nothing to stress about. Do a little more research, take a walk, read a good story, watch a movie. Let the incubator work. When it's ready, it will spill on the page.
Another great key I discovered was to not write myself out. If I was working on a scene or a chapter, I would stop before it was completed with a small note to myself of where we were going. Whenever I came back to the page, the pump was already primed.

Nikolas Larum:
Hi Nikolas, great to meet you! I used the name Larum for my writing because it was my grandmother's maiden name. She was Fanny Larum who was brought up in South Bank near Middlesbrough in the NE of England. She had a brother called George and I believe he emigrated to Australia and has family there. Fanny was my Dad's mother and I was lucky enough to know her until she died when I was 8 years old. ?
