How do you deal with writer’s block?
Julie Embleton I close my laptop and walk away! Over time I've learned that what works best for me is to mentally place the story aside and let it untangle itself in my mind. If this doesn't work, I've found that writing out lots of random questions and suggestions about the plot or characters can get all cylinders firing again. Failing all of that - chocolate, tea and a good movie.
