After finishing the Immortality Virus I planned on moving on to a new rough draft — Born of Two Worlds. Instead, I suffered 3 months of pure, agonizing writer’s block. I couldn’t force myself to put a single word on the page.I don’t want to get into a long discussion of writer’s block today. There are many causes and just as many solutions. For me, this time, the solution was to gtive the first two chapters of “Born of Two Worlds” to a friend who gave me a few tips and assured me that this version i far superior to the original.
Now I’ve written 4 chapters in 2 weeks (and those weeks included Christmas and New Year’s). Sometimes, you need a little outside perspective to help you see the way through.
