Writer’s block is a persistent shadow even for the most disciplined minds, and in Midnight Eclipse it creeps in like a midnight patrol over the City of Darwin—silent, wide-reaching, ready to smother a scene before it can breathe. Noel-Len Ignatius and Gothalia Ignatius-Valdis know this hush intimately: the pause at the brink of action, dialogue that stalls, and the way a fierce clash with the Xzandians as Excelians can go dim when the crucial detail refuses to show which is shown in the book Midnight Eclipse especially the Web-Book.
