Writer’s Block is a psychiatric phenomenon experienced by writers in the form of a deadlock when writing because of certain obstacles. This study discusses the writer’s block that the female protagonist experienced in the metropop novel The Architecture of Love by Ika Natassa. Data was collected by the documentation study technique and reviewed with a literary psychology approach. The theoretical foundation used is the theory of Bergler, Singer Barrios. The research problems formulated are how the writer’s block phenomenon is displayed in the novel The Architecture of Love, and how the narrative elements in the work support the themes presented by the author. The results showed that the writer’s block phenomenon experienced by the main character was especially caused by unhappiness that is manifested in the form of apathy, anger, anxiety, and problems with other people (ex-husband). Because the writer’s block is a psychological symptom, in this novel, the disorder can be overcome with therapy in the form of relaxation and establishing relationships with new people. As a romance-themed novel, the metropolitan novel The Architecture of Love is built by narrative elements that support the writer’s block theme.

This writing is entitled “The Use of Figurative Expression in Novel ‘The Doomsday Conspiracy’ by Sidney Sheldon”. The discussion is focussed on the analysis of figurative expression in the novel. This study is aimed to identify the types of figurative expression found in the novel and to determine the meaning represented by the use of figurative expression in the novel. The novel entitled “The Doomsday Conspiracy” by Sidney Sheldon is chosen as the data source for this writing. The main theory is adopted from the book “Interpreting Literature” by Knickerbocker and Reninger (1963) about the theory of figurative language, namely about simile, metaphor, personification, synecdoche, hyperbole, metonymy, paradox, irony, dead metaphor, and allusion as a frame or reference. There are also some supporting theories, such as Halliday’s theory (1985) about the metaphorical modes of expressions and Leech’s theory (1974) about seven types of meanings. The finding of the analysis shows that the figurative expression used in the novel can be divided into three groups: (a) comparison included simile, metaphor and personification; (b) contradiction included hyperbole; and (c) connection included metonymy and allusion. But among these types of figurative expression, the groups of comparison, simile, metaphor and personification are those commonly applied in the novel, because they are used to describe the persona’s having a deep feeling which is brought by the main character in the novel.
