Goodreads asked Sherry Jones:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Sherry Jones I never have it! As a journalist for more than 30 years, largely writing for newspapers, I never had the luxury of staring at a blank screen and writing ... nothing. That's not to say that writing fiction is always easy -- it isn't. But I somehow forge ahead in spite of the voices telling me that I'm doing it all wrong, remembering Hemingway's famous quote: "The first draft is always shit."
