No, I don't think so, unless you count "cruise ships in space" as a genre. But I've found one other book that fits that description as well (The One by Eric Klein). As for the structural side, I first encountered TV-style episodic storytelling in book form in The Beam by Sean Platt and Jonny B Truent.(less)

Because time and energy are of the essence, I always have plenty to do when I sit down to write.

However, the times I do feel a bit of "writer's block" it is usually because I haven't sufficiently outlined a scene. The cure is to go for a while and figure out what needs to happen. This always works better when I'm away from the keyboard. When I have it all clear in my head I can sit back down and hammer it out.(less)
