Goodreads asked G.S. Johnston:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

G.S. Johnston I don't really have writer's block, per se. My greatest issue is blocking out the rest of the world to write. I need a contradictory mix of tension and relaxation. I need to feel pressured but at the same time I need to feel concentrated. If the cat is jumping around the room, I can't settle. But if I have massive amounts of time and no pressure, I'll just go an put another load of washing on. I guess I've always been borderline shy/wild.
