Goodreads asked Russell A. Smith:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Russell A. Smith Poorly! My frequent trick is to go off and do something else for such a length of time (can be hours, can be days) until I suddenly have the mad keen to write again. This has served me well in the past, though there are clearly times when it's not so useful (deadlines, anyone?).
