David A. Anderson Inspiration is everywhere waiting to be found. Sometimes an idea will strike me during a run, or on a long, solitary walk. Mostly, they arrive unbidden, after the sky has darkened and the stars are shining. Occasionally, they'll haunt me when I'm comfortably snuggled up under a warm duvet, and I'll have to dash naked through my freezing apartment to jot them down on a scrap of paper. Only then, will I sleep easy.

How do you deal with writer’s block?

David A. Anderson I refuse to leave the room until I have written at least one paragraph. It's an achievable goal, which alleviates some of the pressure. Once you eke out that first paragraph, you've broken through a mental barrier. The next couple will follow. How I see it is, even 300 words are more than you had when you started the session, so chalk it up as a win. The following day will be easier.
