Genre: REFERENCE / Writing SkillsBrand-new book; just published!
I’m the most unqualified person in the world to write a book on writer’s block.
Anybody who suffers from a six-year bout of writer’s block SHOULDN’T tell anybody how to approach the craft of writing. (Let alone how to break from the clutches of writing paralysis.)
Worse yet, during those six years, I became the worst kind of writer there is: a writer who resents other writers for writing.
Probably didn’t help some guy I went to high school with was the screenwriter of the #1 movie in the country at the time. (Won’t tell you what it was, let’s just say it rhymes with “Farm-a-geddeon.”)
So, if you’re looking for a positive, uplifting message — and guarantee you’ll never encounter writer’s block again — then this ain’t the tome for you. (I’m the guy who DIDN’T write a word for 2100 days straight, what guarantee can I give you?)
But in another way I am the MOST qualified person to write this book. I’ve been stuck in literary cement. Frozen in “Han Solo Writer’s Block Carbonite.” Wanting with every fiber of my being to write — anything! — but lacking the ability to type a single word.
I’m also the recipient of some of the most scathing, negative, soul-crushing reviews any person can get from something they wrote.
Don’t worry! No matter how bad you THINK you’re writing is, you’ve got leagues to go before you produce something as critically-panned and monumentally sucky as me. (More on that horror show in the Epilogue, if you’re interested.)
