My memoir. I figured that I've told my characters' stories long enough that I think I know how to tell my own now. But I'm taking my time with it, because it's hard to be as vulnerable as I need to be to tell this story.

Become a relentless (and ruthless) student of human nature, psychology and behavior. Journal, as much as you possibly can, first your observations about your own inner world, and then the world around you. Refuse to make assumptions about people—they will always surprise you. This is what a character does, too. Too many of us try to impose motivation, worldview or actions upon a character. They will rebel every time in the attempt to tell you *their* story...which might be very different than your own.

The best way to deal with either writer's or artist's block is, I'm sorry to break it to ya, but...writing and drawing. Journaling, stream-of-consciousness writing (a la The Artist's Way), drawing your breakfast or doing a portrait of someone you love—put the pen or pencil to paper. It helps to always carry a small notebook or sketchbook on you, because you never know when inspiration will strike, and often it starts with a simple point of curiosity: "I wonder..." or "What if...".
Just go for it.
