Goodreads asked Ruth Edgett:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Ruth Edgett I don't really know what "writer's block" is. If I find that I am having difficulty writing about one particular thing, or one particular project, I switch to another. If my writing begins to feel forced or like it's no longer coming "from the zone", I stop writing and do something else for a while. That old saw, "A change is as good as a rest" works for writers, too.
