In case you missed last week, I announced that, to kick off 2024, I am sharing all about my writing and publishing process–the number one thing I’m asked by readers! I decided to create this 4-part series where anyone who is interested can learn more about my writing process and how I got published. (Part 4, I’ll be taking YOUR questions! So drop a comment, an email, a DM, whatever, and I’ll answer it then!)
This is part two and I am sharing my best tips for avoiding the dreaded writer’s block. I hope something here helps you on your own writing journey!

This Week on Friends and Fiction
Join us Wednesday, January 10th at 7pm Eastern on the F&F Facebook page and YouTube channel to meet this week’s guest, Grady Hendrix!
Grady is an award-winning novelist and screenwriter living in New York City. He is the author of Horrorstör, My Best Friend’s Exorcism (which is being adapted into a feature film by Amazon Studios), We Sold Our Souls, and the New York Times bestseller The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires (currently being adapted into a TV series). Grady also authored the Bram Stoker Award–winning nonfiction book Paperbacks from Hell, a history of the horror paperback boom of the seventies and eighties, and his latest non-fiction book is These Fists Break Bricks: How Kung Fu Movies Swept America and Changed the World.
Grady joins hosts Mary Kay Andrews and Ron Block to discuss his latest instant New York Times bestselling darkly comic horror novel, How to Sell a Haunted House, which was just released in paperback this week. We can’t wait to hear all about the book called “wildly entertaining” by The New York Times and “ingenious” by The Washington Post, and which bestselling thriller author Riley Sager said “zigzags from hilarious to horrifying to heartbreaking and back again in the blink of an eye.”
