Goodreads asked Michele Micheal Rakes:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Michele Micheal Rakes Writer's block is a bane and a blessing. I think it occurs when your mind has spent too much time working on the story, novel, what have you. It's your brain telling you to take a break. Instead of fighting it, I'll go do something else: read a book, watch a movie, walk the cat, or just about anything other than writing. It's a good time to answer questions, blog, or social media. When you're ready, the ideas and words will come easily.
