Goodreads asked Ruth Holroyd:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Ruth Holroyd I find that getting out of my normal work setting can really help. So going to a coffee shop, working from a shared office, taking a note pad and pen with me and doing some brain storming and just getting anything on paper, like a word dump. Often find writing long hand helps, particularly with poetry. I don't have too much trouble with writers block but starting a new project can be difficult. Writing a plan of what needs doing and ideas for research can also help.
