Goodreads asked Colin L. Howe:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Colin L. Howe My #1 writing principle is: "My first draft is always crap." Takes all the pressure off.

For me, the best part of writing is editing. I can write any ridiculous nonsense and then come back an fix it later. One page a crap that i can edit into half a page of text is better than having nothing at all.

If there was a way I could edit what I say out loud I'd jump at it.
