Goodreads asked Dan Gallagher:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Dan Gallagher I outline longer works and critique it for logical flaws, plausibility, emotion generation, artful use of appropriate elements of fiction (and dramatic nonfiction) and other aspects. I fantasize what I research, meaning I imagine and even modify scenarios concerning the fascinating things I research. I only write about things with which I have life experiences so that military and action scenes, close calls with large predators, etc. are realistic. I never write fantasy or the types of SF that involve elements that are not plausible.
