Goodreads asked L.E. Chamberlin:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

L.E. Chamberlin My problem tends to be writer's ADD. I never run out of ideas - scenes, characters, premises, etc. run through my head all the time - but I sometimes have difficulty sticking to a project. I'm anxious to meet all of my characters and that makes me incredibly impatient and distracts me from the WIP du jour. But I try not to beat myself up about that - I'll bargain with myself. For example, I'll allow myself to knock off working on one story a little early to spend time on another. That way, I keep the creative juices flowing but don't sabotage myself by being completely inefficient.
