Hello! My question is a quick one. How do you get yourself out of "writer's block?" I've been stuck on my own draft for about a year even though I constantly have new ideas for it. It's difficult to translate thoughts to written words when before it was quite easy. I admire how your work flows so smoothly not just within each novel, but from book to book.

I don't get writer's block very often these days but some days I certainly write more than others. When I get stuck I go for a walk. Sometimes I use spider diagrams. Each leg represents a possible plot direction so I use the best leg I can find! Remember I have a team of people working on my books. Before publication they go through several drafts and editing before the final version. The first draft I submit to my editor is far from smooth.

Again, to long. Could you please tell me all the books you have written/ been published that are in The Last Apprentice universe or are planning in being published? How many books in the Brother Wulf series and Aberrations? And lastly, (for now at least), is every book you have written in the Last Apprentice series in the same universe? Wait, also is Tom in Aberrations? Apologies for all the questions. Thank you.
