Writer's Block

[Jude Hardin]

Author Erica Orloff started a discussion on her blog earlier today with this quote:

There's no such thing as writer's block. That was invented by people in California who couldn't write.
--Terry Pratchett

Thoughts? Is there such a thing as writer's block?

[I. J. Parker]

I don't force it. I go and do something else: research, taking a walk, working in the garden, whatever. It generally takes at least 24 hours before I get a solution.
