Goodreads asked Lela Markham:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Lela Markham I rarely get writer's block because I always have multiple projects going, so I don't get bored or panicked if ideas don't flow right away. Sometime just hammering out a stream of consciousness paragraph will break things loose. Or go for a hike, throw the ball for the dog, watch a movie, read someone else's book. Writer's block is mainly the product of freaking yourself out by staring at a blank sheet of paper (computer screen). Make it not blank and the terror goes away.
