Goodreads asked Michele Venne:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Michele Venne I keep writing. I also break away and do something else, like work with watercolors or make a new recipe. Most of the time, writer's block is because of fear. My inner critic is there rattling off cruel comments. If I keep writing, I can usually bowl right over it. Occasionally, a writer might get blocked because there's something going on in their WIP that they're not sure how to solve. Doing something else besides writing, but something that's still creative, can give a solution.
