Mostly I cry.
Really, I don't have a constructive way of dealing with it. I have yet to meet anyone who sincerely does. Each writer has her own methods, some work for them … some are delusional.
I could go on about random iTunes lists and the Electric Sheep screensaver (does that even still exist?), except it didn't work for me as it does for Spider Robinson.
I could talk about prayer, but if that does help it's slow enough as to not seem an obvious solution.
Long walk in the wilderness? Maybe, depends where the block is coming from.
Backtracking and finding the part of the story where you went the wrong way? Yeah, that's worked before and other times not at all.
Crying doesn't help either, really. The writer's block is still there, but it might get me a hug or a cup of tea, and that's probably just as good, right?
