Goodreads asked Debra Trueman:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Debra Trueman When I’m in the zone, the story just comes on its own. I let the characters take over and say and do what they want. Unfortunately, sometimes it’s just not there. For me, the best way to deal with writer’s block is to just keep writing, even if I have to consciously force every word out onto the page. Sometimes, those forced parts of the story end up fine; other times, I have to go back and revise when I’m back in the zone. But that’s okay. The important thing is to push through writer’s block and just keep on writing.
