Goodreads asked Lynne M. Spreen:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Lynne M. Spreen Sometimes I get writers' block because I don't know what I'm doing. In that case, I walk around my house or neighborhood talking to myself. "What are you trying to say? What the heck is your point?" I wave my arms around a lot and mumble audibly.
Then I go back in my office and draw diagrams on the whiteboard. Maybe boxes with arrows, depicting what happens first, then next, then next, etc. If none of that works, I turn to alcohol.
