Goodreads asked Juliet Marillier:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Juliet Marillier When I don't seem to be making progress on the current work in progress, I do all the related tasks that are necessary for a full time career writer, such as doing the accounts, research reading, editing (I usually have a book somewhere along the road to publication as well as one I'm actually writing), responding to emails and letters, social media, publicity and so on.

I also find exercise is good for getting creativity flowing, so I may walk my dogs or go to the gym. And other creative activities such as cooking, gardening or sewing are also useful.
