“I’m not a big believer in ‘writer’s block.’ I think it’s adorable that of all professions, we have an actual condition to justify not getting our work done. But in any line of work, there can be times when we need to take a break, to clear our heads. Go for a walk. Cut the grass. Build a Lego kit. That’s often when the solution to our problem will come to us.”
      — Linwood Barclay

“Writer’s block doesn’t exist. It’s an indulgence.”
      — Elaine Viets
