Goodreads asked Sarah N. Ham:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Sarah N. Ham I tend to bring my stories with me everywhere (I used to handwrite out my stories in a notebook, but now I have a more portable laptop). If it's with me, I can write wherever I am, and it can help me through writer's block.

Another thing I've done in the past is to look at the story's overall picture, asking what is the main theme and concepts, so do these ideas I've been writing fit with that? If not, then I backtrack until I get to a point where I can find that theme again.
