How do you deal with writer’s block?

I also find it helpful to read a few pages of an author who writes in the same genre as whichever piece I'm attempting (e.g. for "No White Coat Necessary," I took frequent Mary Roach breaks). Sometimes the computer screen is what's holding me up, and so I try to jot down some thoughts in a notebook instead. And when writer's block lasts longer than a few hours (e.g. weeks or months where inspiration is low), I try to force myself to write anyway, preferably in the early morning, and preferably without judging or editing what ends up on the page. Then I go back later and salvage the good bits that emerged among the bad. (less)

Right now I'm working on finishing up the small things that accompany the book publishing process. In the near future, I'm planning to begin a series of creative nonfiction short stories, derived from personal experiences working in healthcare clinics and as a community organizer.(less)
