The late Robert Sheckley told me how he dealt with it. He'd give himself a minimum word limit of 5,000 words a day, even if all he did was write his name 2,500 times. And on those days he was blocked, he did start writing his name, and after he'd written "Robert Sheckley" 800 or 900 times an inner voice said, "Ah, hell -- if you're going to sit here doing that, you might as well write a story." According to Bob, it never failed.

Je me demande si ça marche vraiment. Faudra que j'essaie...
