We recommend The Artist's Way, by Julia Cameron -- to everyone. She has a great exercise called "Morning Pages" -- write 3 pages every morning of anything, anything at all. Just write and build your muscle of self expression. You'll see patterns starting to emerge in your insights and feelings...and who knows, it may be the makings of a book outline.
Writing groups can also be a great source of support in everywat.

I am reading Bird by Bird, some instructions on writing and life by Anne Lamott. She says "good writing is about telling the truth" and ditto to The Artist Way!
