Goodreads asked Fran Dorricott:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Fran Dorricott I guess it depends what kind of writer's block we're talking about! Sometimes I find it's a motivation issue, especially if I'm drained or overtired. In that case I'll allow myself some time off to relax and reboot. If I know I'm not burned out, I'll consider if it's something to do with the project. Maybe I've taken a wrong turn without realising, or maybe I'm just feeling a bit bored, in which case I'll rethink and/or spice it up. Sometimes though I don't want to write because I'm being lazy! The solution in that case is just to get on with it and write anyway. I usually feel better afterwards. :)
