Goodreads asked Dawn Montgomery:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Dawn Montgomery I try to figure out why I'm stuck. Is it my self esteem? Is it the book? Am I bored? Once I figure out what's wrong, I get up from the chair and go DO SOMETHING ELSE. I go for a walk, clean the house, create a new playlist, read a book, draw, paint, etc. That way I'm not staring at a blank screen. I force myself to sit down at the desk at least six times a day to make sure I still can't write. If that doesn't work, I try handwriting rather than typing, or voice to text. Once I even got a part time job. That last one opened the dam immediately.
