Goodreads asked Shirley S. Simon:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Shirley S. Simon Reading...brainstorming .... going through old notes that I may have jotted down. Listening to music also helps sometimes... calms me down, helps to look at things differently. When I feel I am stuck at some point in a story... I usually step back and try to see what's going on and where it is going... old notes help in giving me directions.
