I don't really see it as writer's block. For me, it's book block. I'm stuck on the characters or the plotting or the logistics. To get unstuck, I do an assortment of things--participate in physical activities that allow my mind to wander (driving, showering, walking), participate in mental activities that engage my conscious brain but allow my subconscious to wander (do jigsaw puzzles or play computer games), or I have a glass of wine. For some reason, one glass of wine really helps.
But I don't ever have "writer's block," where I can't think of something to write. It's always problem-oriented--"I must figure this tough part out."

Hi Sabrina. I just love your work!! I was wondering if your An April Fool's Forbidden Affair would be available as a single? I found it here on Goodreads and it looks like others have read it but I can't get it on kindle so wondered if it wasn't available yet. I hope you are doing great! :)

I'm an aspiring writer, but I'm dealing with two things: I get discouraged every single day because 96% of manuscripts are rejected, and I haven't had an idea for years, literally. There's too many people wanting to be writers, and knowing there's so much competition just kills me a little every day. When I get motivated, immediatly something appears about the industry that kills it. Any tips on how to deal with this?
