Goodreads asked Joshua Cox-Steib:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Joshua Cox-Steib Whenever I'm full of energy to write, but can't seem to make any headway on the piece I'm working on, then I switch to another story, or write something new. Most often I find that my writer's block is simply my brain wanting to write something different than what I'm working on - usually it will go back to being obedient after I appease it. If the block has more to do with energy and motivation then I drink coffee, play energetic music, maybe get some adrenaline going with an online pvp game of some sort, and then take that energy and focus it upon writing. If none of that works, then the odds are good that I need to go to sleep.
