Catrina J. Sparkman When I hit a block, I take some time off and focus on something else. Sometimes I will even take that time and learn how to do something new. In fact, my natural soap and body care business, Abba's Earth Soaps was birthed 15 years ago during a five year period of writers block. This was a very frustrating time for me, but I learned how to make some really amazing soap :) !
