Mark Binder The tentacle slithered into Julian's left ear, thinning as it burrowed through his ear drum and extended past his middle and inner ears until it connected to his Cochlear nerve and burrowed directly into his brain. His days went on as usual with work and meetings, meals and sleep—or so he thought, not knowing that he sat still on the couch in front of the blank screen of his television until every bit of protein in his body was sucked dry.
Mark Binder My initial answer was this: I only have writers' block when I don't think someone is going to read my work. Otherwise, I keep writing! (Sorry I didn't see this, I was writing.)

In retrospect, it's a little more complex. I've trained myself to write when I need to. If there's a deadline or an event or a timely piece needed, I sit down and write it. It's when there is little in the way of urgency that I am "blocked" -- but it's not really blocked so much as inert.

Does that make sense?
Mark Binder I've just wrapped up a new chapter book of adventure stories called "Every Hero Has a Story." The next project is called, "One upon… The End!" It's a thrilling ride chapter book for young people.
