Goodreads asked Leslie R. Waggoner III:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Leslie R. Waggoner III Writer's block for me is simply not understanding what the goal of my scene is... and since I am a pantser.. it is easy for me to enter a scene and not quite understand what I want to get out of it.

For me, I just write what is going on, what is being enacted in front of me and soon I will have enough to know where I want to take the scene, and sometimes I need to back track a bit and push it in a different direction.

But the long story short is... when I am blocked, I just write without intention until it surfaces.
