Eat something interesting, take a walk, listen to a song that you might use to pump yourself up before a big game/concert/etc. Repeat as many times as it takes to rid yourself of the block.

Create the loftiest of goals for yourself as a writer! If you don't have lofty goals, you won't achieve anything lofty. Have I said lofty enough times?
But seriously, challenge yourself to write two or three pieces a week, go after the publications you never thought you could get published in, and get coffee (or ice cream, if it were me) with and learn from the writers that inspire you. It's not always a bad thing to be hard on yourself—that's how you grow!

The book all started as a column in my school newspaper called "The DDS Detective." DDS stands for Dartmouth Dining Services, our school's dining provider, and each week, I would come up with a recipe that students could make using only the ingredients found in the dining halls. Because of the column, Dartmouth Dining Services created a position for me as a student consultant, and I got to learn about the kinds of ingredients available at dining halls across the country.
So, I decided it was high time to make my recipes "universal," and the book was born!
