Goodreads asked Keith Robinson:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Keith Robinson Instead of trying to force myself to write the next part of my book when I'm not feeling inspiration, I get a blank document and just write roughly what happens next and why, and the act of writing that out helps me get into the right frame of mind. It's also a great way to figure out a plot thread if I'm stuck. Writing down the problem and then writing my answer ALWAYS helps, even if I'm asking myself questions as I go along, eg: "...The character then goes to the forbidden realm (how does he travel?) to deal with the fire drake problem but comes away with injuries (what injuries, though?) that prevent him from going on the quest with the others..."
