Goodreads asked Gregg Norman:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Gregg Norman I deal with it the same way I deal with a sudden urge to do a lot of physical labor - lie down and wait until it goes away. That may sound facetious but it's not meant to be. I believe that the biggest cause of writer's block (and many other ills that beset us) is stress. So relax, put your feet up, and don't sweat the small stuff (sorry about the cliches). Just let your mind take over. If that doesn't do the trick, re-read a favorite novel, one that you love and that inspires you. Also, get as much sleep as you can. Dreams can be very productive.
