Goodreads asked Sapha Burnell:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Sapha Burnell I research or read articles in Journals & magazines, then get back to work. My mentor taught discipline by training the brain to sequence ideas and work on anything else despite blocks. She'd give us a series of character studies, setting & plot studies to complete. There's always something to go over and work through, which usually lead me back to the block from another angle.
