If I don't feel creative, I do research, re-look at structure or I edit chapters I have already written. They are jobs that require different skills to the creative writing and so I can do them when I have a 'block.'
If I work on character, write a descriptive piece about setting or describing a character, then that usually brings back inspiration.
Some people say, 'oh, stop whinging and just get your bum in the chair and write!' That can work too. It's about stopping your judgmental, anxious head and just getting on with it!
So, I don't class myself as every having a 'block' because there is always something I can do.
And for those times when I just don't know where it's going, I head off for a walk or have a bath. Amazing the way problems are solved when you relax!(less)

I can live a different life and explore different ways of living and being.
I can also use my brain when trying to work out the plot.
And I can work from home.
Oops...there are many great things about being a writer and I'm beginning a list!
Just thought. The best thing about being a writer is when a reader loves the world and people you create.(less)
