Goodreads asked Mike Vago:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Mike Vago Left to my own devices, I usually don't deal with it, I just leave things unfinished and get distracted by a new project. The one thing that usually helps me is input from someone else. The next book I'm putting out with Workman is an idea I had while working on Miniature Golf, but I got stuck engineering it, and it wound up sitting on a shelf for five years. When I met Daniel Nayeri, my editor on the book, I quickly saw that he had a great head for the mechanics of books and thought he might be able to help me work out the problem. It only took us about ten minutes to hash things out, and a few days later I had a working prototype and we were off to the races.
