Goodreads asked Mardi Maxwell:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Mardi Maxwell You spelled writer's block wrong...it's actually spelled "too much family." lol I've been distracted by some health issues in my family but hopefully those are now better and I can get back to writing along with my other hobbies of gardening and cooking. I've added another as I snooped around in my mother's garage, found my great-grandmother's old cast iron cookware and I've been cleaning and seasoning it, and trying it out. Just an FYI...women had it really tough back then. Those things weigh a ton and are a lot harder to use than a microwave. ;-) But on a more serious note...writer's block is tough but I usually take a break from the book I'm stuck on and do something else for a while which can be work on a different book, cook, or try a new DIY project, or even just spend a day with my friends. I'm always surprised by how much inspiration I get from just relaxing and giving myself a break.
