Goodreads asked Hazel Osmond:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Hazel Osmond Sit down and write. Sorry, I'm not being flippant. I've written most of my working life to deadlines, particularly in advertising and you can't go to the client and tell them you couldn't come up with an idea or any copy because you had writer's block. You just have to work through it and hope inspiration arrives at some point. If you can't get through the work in progress, try a poem, or a short story. Try writing a diary entry. Just write something. That usually does the trick with me.
