Exercise 3: Writer's Block

When I was a wee lad of near ten years old, I had hit a problem in my road to write my fist book, The Mirror. I don't particularly remember the problem, but it existed. To alleviate it, I figured I would wrote my two favorite authors, Dean Koontz and Stephen King.
Stephen King's letter came back about a day later with a stamp indicating it wasn't his actual his address.
So this exercise is to be used if you suffer from a strong sense of writer's block. All of you have to do is take a couple of minutes to write a letter to someone. It doesn't have to be Dean Koontz.
Mine was similar to:
Dear Dean Koontz,

I'm a big fan of yours, and I am suffering from writer's block. What do you do to make writer's block go away?

-Alex

He wrote back to saying that he doesn't suffer from writer's block, which was enough to help me get over it. Now every time I think I can't write, I am at that letter, and I feel like I can.
