The quote I’ve used in the title always makes me laugh, but lately, it has been painfully true. I don’t know why but I can’t seem to find my creative spark for the last couple weeks. I am almost finished the first draft of Chapter 6 in my untitled Fantasy/Sci-Fi novel, but I can’t seemContinue reading “Writer’s Block: When Your Imaginary Friends Refuse to Talk to You (Author Unknown)”
