Goodreads asked Elizabeth Daugherty:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Elizabeth Daugherty I do two things: I outline what it is I'm blocked out. If I need to bridge some action between characters in order to move them to the next scene and I can't figure out how to do it or if I need to write a scene and I just don't know where to start, I'll break it down into manageable pieces by outlining it and see what I have.

The other thing I do, honestly, is take a nap. Take some time to get out of your head and get some afternoon z's. Curl up with your dog or cat (in my case, dog AND cat) and take a nap.
