One of the most effective ways for me to press through writer's block is to walk away from the computer and do something else creative--a nature walk, a visit to an art gallery, reading great literature, weeding my garden... Focusing on something other than the story I'm working on usually gets my mind kicked out of the blank-screen mode, settles my soul, and allows creativity to have room to roam.

I loved reading Song of Silence! It was an absolute joy. Do you know ASL, or do you have deaf friends? I was wondering who or what was the inspiration for Sasha's character. I am currently working at a deaf school in El Salvador, so I really connected with that part of the book. Thanks for sharing your stories!
