Goodreads asked Jessie McClain:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Jessie McClain Writers block is hard. And we've all been there. I walk away. Sometimes for only an hour. Sometimes for a day or a week. I clear my head and I think about anything but writing. I listen to songs and write down my favorite lyrics on scrap paper and stare at them. I run. I play guitar. I read. I watch movies. I just won't sit and stare at a blank screen. LOL! The perfect thing that I have to write next comes to me on it's own. I always felt it had to come to me effortlessly. I don't want to search and paw for my next piece. Then you're trying to hard and it's pointless.
