Goodreads asked Robin E. Mason:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Robin E. Mason I haven't had "writer's block" per se, but I have gotten stuck a number of times. If it's a word choice or something to research, I make a note within the text of my manuscript and come back to it. My mind is all over the place [all the time!] and sometimes I have to get up and physically move around, do the dishes, you know, something mundane. Best of all, I love going for walks - being outdoors is rather my muse, and in allowing my mind to ramble, sometimes the "stuck" or blocked portion becomes clear.
