I did an interview on writing with a blog called NF Reads.
Here is a short excerpt:
How Do You Deal with Creative Block?
I almost never face a blank page. I work out the stories and poems in my head and when they’re ready to be written I take pen and pencil to my cave at a bakery and write. My poems and stories come to be written so there are times when I feel I have written my last word. But eventually, some idea will appear, first as a fog and gradually I work to bring form to all the vague thoughts and ideas in my head. This is the challenging and exciting part of the process.

Hi Frances, I’m disappointed I won’t be able to hear you speak Thursday. I have a gift for you. It would have been a great time to get it to you. Let me know the best way to reach you. We will be attending my 70th class reunion this month. It is our last. Elva

How very nice of you, Elva. I often attend the Wednesday luncheons since they’re during daylight. Maybe some Wednesday? Take good care. It’s always so nice to hear from you. frances
Frances, I deal with creative block much the same way you do. My first drafts of anything are with pen and paper. I cannot relate well to boredom. My problem is the opposite. I have a hard time choosing from the many possible ideas that come to me. Elva

How wonderful for you that you have so many stories and ideas filling your head. Maybe those who find a wall say I want to write, I want to write instead of I need to write. They won’t go away until I write.Thank you for sharing your thoughts here.
