Goodreads asked Doug Stanfield:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Doug Stanfield I pick up a book by someone I admire, which these days is usually Harrison, and by the third or fourth poem in he's given me the gift of an image or an idea that my mind grabs and starts spinning something off of. I don't copy, but I am inspired by writers to learn how to be as good as they are.
