Goodreads asked C.A. MacLean:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

C.A. MacLean The best medicine is preventive. I've learned to never write without an outline; that way if I start to get stuck, I can look at where things will be going and see if I can find a good way to chain events together between point A and B. Writing out of order, doing up a draft of a later scene, can also help you spark an idea for an earlier section you're having trouble with.
