M., what if I get writer's block?

Fake it 'til you make it, baby. The Muse is a fickle mistress, and sometimes you just have to go on without her. If there was one thing I could tell someone who is serious about finishing a novel, it is this: Write when you don't want to. Write when you don't feel it. Write when you think what is coming out of your fingers is absolute crap. Just write. That's how you finish.
