Goodreads asked Sarah Armstrong:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Sarah Armstrong Since having a child, I haven't struggled with writer's block like I used to. If I am feeling a bit directionless in my writing, I will freewrite about my character's back story (eg. what they remember from primary school, first kiss, most memorable Christmas) and particularly about what they want. Digging down into a character's desire is a sure fire way to get me out of any writing doldrums.
