Is there a reason that doctors in movies and shows shock patients with defibulators to START a heart beating?
I heard that that STOPS the heart so that they can stop irregular heart activity. Like it is a major mistake made over and over again in fiction. With all the medical consultants for the film industry why can’t they stop them from this? Is there some reason for it? Like a big inside joke?

my wife has been reading harry potter fan fiction now for 2 years how do i get her to stop?
she has been reading harry potter fan fiction for 2 years and i have tried reading the stories and the books and the movies and after so much i have been overloaded. she depicts the movies down to every detail. I have been pateint and now that is all she does is read on the computer. she doesn’t do any chores and i am not trying to be controlling but how much of one persons life does this take up. I can lay next to her for 6 or 7 hours and she doesn’t even turn to look at me.people also notice this and say that it isn’t healthy. My freinds and family ask me why i have put up with it for so long and i try to tell them that it will pass but it has been 2 straight years of nothing but fan fiction. I understrand her getting into the books but these aren’t the books some of these stories are regular stories and others are smut. gay smut at that about harry and draco. and most of them are these types of stories. i just can’t get into these types of stories.

Help me cure my extreme case of writer’s block?
I have done everything there is to do to snap out of my extreme writers block — I’ve read different kinds of books, watched movies, physical activity, everything.
But, everytime I sit down to write, my mind goes absolutely BLANK. This has been going on for almost 8 months.
Please, I need to snap out of this. What can I do???

Writing block and tendency to procrastinate while writing my novel, any writers out there with suggestions?
I am going into chapter 16 of my novel but have spent the last week basically cruising the web and watching satellite television. I am drawn to movies about writers but have lost momentum. Has this happened to you? How have you combatted it?
I already have the novel outline (basic ideas and character development) but just feel lethargic and resist writing. I’ve read portions of it to my husband and he thinks that it is good and he is a tough critic but now he’s asking for pages everyday and I don’t have them. Any tricks of the trade that I should know? Serious answers only please. I know I should get off of my arse and just write but I need clues as to what other writers do when facing this dillema.
