Goodreads asked D.R. O'Shea:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

D.R. O'Shea I suppose I deal with it by having a fully formed outline. I start with a high level view, maybe three main points - the beginning, middle and end. Then I dig down a bit. I write a few pages of a detailed outline for the story. Focusing on large scenes. The words in between those huge scenes are the hardest part for me. Finding a way to bring my story together was difficult.
BUT, I've only written one book as of this response. I haven't truly had to deal with a block, only lack of motivation.
