Goodreads asked A.D. Hopkins:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

A.D. Hopkins The kind I sometimes have is realizing the idea I have to start a project is not a very good one. But journalism taught me that not-so-good is still better than nothing, so I go ahead and write. I can go back later and polish up a poor beginning, but I often find that it really was much better than I expected, and only needs a tweak here or there.
Also, I was an insomniac most of my life, and found that on nights I could not sleep, I could write. They became my most productive times, and after a bout of writing, I slept like a bear.
