Goodreads asked Ali Dean:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Ali Dean Usually writer's block just means I'm trying to make my characters do something they don't want to do, but sometimes it means I'm not sure what they want to do, and, in that case, I either (1) go for a run (2) drink a beer or (3) read a book. But I don't stay away for long, I just force myself to write something, anything, until it starts to flow again.
