Goodreads asked Rick Barry:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Rick Barry Many author friends agree that the best remedy for writer's block is simply to force yourself back to the keyboard and to resume working, even if you're not feeling "inspired." If you wait for the right mood, you will probably never write. When you woodenly keyboard word after word without feeling great inspiration, you might feel you're typing junk. And maybe you are! However, junk writing can always be edited and improved and polished at a later date. But that blank Word document that is still waiting for you to be in the mood? There is absolutely no way to improve it!
