How do you deal with writer’s block?

I don’t say that I’ll write three hours a day. I say, Oh, I know what comes next. And then I’m off and running. It’s true that a lot of writers insist that they must have a schedule and they’re more prolific than I am. But they may not be having more fun. My excitement about my story and characters are the fire under me. (less)
