I'm sorry but I don't believe in writer's block. Here's some quick thoughts. 1. Are you a perfectionist? Well you must learn to give yourself permission to suck. It's OK no one else is going to read it for a long time.
2. Listen to Mur Lafferty's I Should Be Writing podcast.
3. Remember: Either you sit at the computer and type and don't care about what you type, or you don't. It's your choice. Yeah, it IS a choice. No one is doing this to you but you.
I'm a tough love person. I don't believe in airy fairy art-teets.

Hello Gail! Love your books! I've read Finishing School series, Prudence, and just finished Soulless. And while I can relate to many characters in your books, I could tell from the first few pages Rue and I were very similar in our thinking. So my question is, what was it like getting into her head? What inspired her thought process? Was there an “Ah ha!” moment when creating her?

Hi Ms. Carriger, I just finished Changeless and about to read the third book (Blameless). I'm a tad upset with Conall Maccon handling the "bun in the oven" situation. I understand that such case was unprecedented, but must he act so harshly? Will his actions be justified in the third book? I scanned the Manga and it seems Alexia had to go through a lot. I believe grovelling would simply not be enough. (>_<)
