How do you deal with writer鈥檚 block?

He was asked鈥辞谤别I don't really have the experience of 'writer's block'-- The question calls to mind a quote I read from Daniel Boone, the great woodsman. He was asked if he'd ever been lost in the woods. He thought for some time and then said "No. I've never been lost, but I was once befuddled for three days." Occasionally I'll find myself stuck. But I always know that the 'stuckness' is the story speaking to me, telling me to dig deeper, to spend what I call 'power time' with my characters. These are most precious moments, these moments when momentum stalls, they are like a break in time and space, an almost magical time when the power of story finds its way through to me like a stream of water winding its way through a field and bringing new life. But don't get me wrong-- these are challenging times. I've learned from experience to trust that the story and I will move forward. Walking helps, especially in nature, by the sea or in a forest. Or sometime just down my lane. Birdsong can be a powerful catalyst, an "heroic voice", as Thomas Berry once said to me.(less)

I'm an aspiring writer, but I'm dealing with two things: I get discouraged every single day because 96% of manuscripts are rejected, and I haven't had an idea for years, literally. There's too many people wanting to be writers, and knowing there's so much competition just kills me a little every day. When I get motivated, immediatly something appears about the industry that kills it. Any tips on how to deal with this?

Pamela Aares First off, regarding ideas: I find that if you focus on what you love in life, what inprires you, what surprises you, what draws you, in those places 鈥辞谤别First off, regarding ideas: I find that if you focus on what you love in life, what inprires you, what surprises you, what draws you, in those places is a well of creative energy just waiting for you to express it in words. As far as rejection goes- this is a great time to be a writer. You can self-publish your work and get it out to the world. If you do go this route, look at self publishing guidebooks and forums and my one piece of advice is hire a professional editor, the best you can afford so that your work is polished before you publish it. The best independent, self-published authors always hire excellent talent and their books are often better than those put out by major publishers in New York. Good luck and step one: write. Step two: write. Step three: write!(less)

Quotes by Pamela Aares (?)

“This kiss was different from the first one under the olive tree. That one had been unplanned, she was pretty sure. This kiss had intention and hunger branded all over it. It was like one of those kisses you read about in fairy tales鈥攂ut Alana had never imagined that such a kiss could cause bone-trembling shivers as well as bliss. She鈥檇 never considered the downside of the awakening kiss, of how the princess felt when the hero tore through the thorns or scaled the tower and speared heat and sex and life-changing energy into the princess鈥檚 world.”
