Goodreads asked Frances Pauli:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Frances Pauli For my process, writer's block almost always means I've made an error in the manuscript's trajectory. Usually (knock on wood) if I go back a little and ruminate, something will come to light that needs to be shifted before the book can move forward again. A character has done something that is not in their nature, a choice has been made that will cause issue later... Once i work it out and untangle the goof, so far, I've been able to move on quickly enough.
