randomhouse -Today’s #WritersRoutine is from Jordy Rosenberg, author of CONFESSIONS OF THE FOX. •What do you do beyond writing? According to this photo: cuddle my dog, Gnome de Guerre Rosenberg, ride my bike around, and pile coats on tables rather than on hangers where they belong. 

•Where/When do you write? Generally parked on a couch or at the dining table, with dog on lap. However, I began Confessions of the Fox some years ago while traveling cross-country on Amtrak. This was before I had a smartphone. I had printed out maps and diagrams of 18th century London prisons, so there was a fair amount of ekphrastic writing in the early process.

•What would surprise people the most about your routine? I'm not sure it would surprise any writer to hear that my "routine" involves a lot of flinging of self upon couches and moaning uselessly. 

•What is your outlining/research process? I am terrible at making outlines. I'm not proud of that fact. Mostly I write things on scraps of paper that I then arrange into hectic conglomerations on tables. 

•When are you the most productive? I have not been productive since the advent of the internet. 

•How do you solve writers block? I do not believe in writer's block as a diagnosis. People don't write for all kinds of reasons - their job, childcare, working through trauma, etc.. My perspective on "writers block" is that it is largely caused by real-life factors, and so when we are not writing we might actually be unconsciously germinating an idea that comes out of the experience of these factors and constraints. 

•Do you write alone, or with others? Depends on the other. 

•What inspires you? Politics, the history and present of utopian thought, and scent.
