Goodreads asked James Hauenstein:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

James Hauenstein I'm not sure where this technique came from, but what I do is, I'll sit down and write only one sentence. The next day I'll write a second sentence. The third day a third sentence with revisions to the first two. Usually by the end of the week I have come up with ideas for other stories and I have the beginning of a new story already started.
