When I hit a block regardless of what I am writing what the subject matter is or what's going on in the plot I go back and I read Pablo Neruda's poetry. I don't actually speak Spanish so I read it translation. But I always go back to Neruda. I don't know why but it calms me calms my brain.
I have always believed and I still believe that whatever good or bad fortune may come our way we can always give it meaning and transform it into something of value.
