This book was the first novel. It is considered the best novel ever written. It is about a old blind man who reads about knights and wants to become one. So he sets off and makes the real world his fantasy. Ive never read it but I have seen the musical 'Man of La Mancha'. This is the story where the old man thinks a windmill is a monster and fights it. But this whole [play] is being acted out in a jail cell. THis paralelles Cervantes' life becuase he was actually imprisoned. Anyway why it is considered teh best novel of all time is because you get so attached to the characters (which is a hard thing to do). And some people really like that. Personally there are other works that are far better than that. I would not even consider this book to be the greatest of all time.

The easiest way to get rid of this 'writers block' is to try something new somthing that you have never considered trying. As well music has a technical side to it. Perhaps taking another look at the building blocks of music might help. For example if you always start with a melody then try starting with a chord progression. Hope this helps.
