Goodreads asked John R. Bohrer:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

John R. Bohrer I read, review, or do research. Those are the basics. But my secret for drawing inspiration is to watch a classic movie. I usually pick something that won or was nominated for best picture. It motivates me to think about story arc, time period, dialogue, emotion. And even if it doesn't strike you, you'll have an opinion on a historic picture to talk about.
