Goodreads asked BethAnne Kapansky Wright:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

BethAnne Kapansky Wright Write anyways.

It sounds so simple- and I definitely have days where I can tell my brain isn't going to churn out anything good- but more often than not, I make myself write anyways. Even if it's just a journal entry or a free stream of thoughts.

I have found that writing leads to more writing, so when I feel stuck on a project, I usually switch my focus and scribble a small poem or a quote, and the good energy I receive from producing something usually helps break down that block sooner rather than later.
