Goodreads asked Thom Erb:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Thom Erb Early on, I believed in the accursed "writer's block". But, as time went on and I learned my process of writing, I've come to not believe in it so much. It's just part of the writing process where you just have to work through it. I just keep writing. I don't care it it's coming out as the worst drivel anyone has insulted a piece of paper with. As longs as I keep writing the words, at some point, they start to make sense and become not-so-craptastic.

I also agree with Joe Lansdale, who states that writer's block is just the author being lazy. Just do the work.

Just keep writing. It'll all work ou in the end.
