Goodreads asked P.R. Infidel:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

P.R. Infidel I make myself write for 15 minutes each day, even when I don't want to. Sometimes I just tell myself: do some editing (clean up punctuation, spelling errors, etc) but then in the process of editing I get inspired to add a new scene or tweak something I've done previously. I also get a lot of inspiration from the work of others, so I'll take a break to read a novel, watch a television show. I also LOVE watching my kids play video games. Don't ever knock them! Modern video games these days have some of the most sophisticated plot lines and character growth arcs out there. If there isn't a gamer in your house, check out some of the youtube gamers or try your hand at them yourself!
