Goodreads asked M.E. Smith:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

M.E. Smith You have to write through it. I think a lot of writer's block comes from trying to make your first run-through perfect. Don't do it! This is the information age; anything you put down now can be revised later. Raymond Chandler recommended throwing up in your typewriter first thing in the morning and cleaning it up by noon.
