Goodreads asked J.L. Murray:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

J.L. Murray In my experience, writer's block happens because either there's something wrong with your story or with your mindset. Being in an emotional rut can stall your creativity, so if I'm feeling down, I know that I need to take care of myself. Take a day, read some good books, drink tea with real cream. If it's the story that's stopping me, I go back and figure out where I went wrong. These two tricks have never failed to work for me.
