Goodreads asked Audrey O'Connor:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Audrey O'Connor I watch art films. When I'm out of creative steam, I need to refuel. You get used to producing and forget that an essential part of "putting out" is taking material in.

My favorites are:

Miyazaki's Spirited Away, Melanie Laurent's Respire (Breathe), David Lynch's Mullholland Drive, Twin Peaks and The Straight Story. I just watched the movie Secretary for the first time, with Maggie Gyllenhaal and James Spader. Loved it. Maggie gave me a whole new kind of heroine.
