Goodreads asked Judy Shank Cyg:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Judy Shank Cyg I've experienced writer's block many times, once it lasted for years when there was a family challenge for time and effort and energy. Through all of that, I kept a daily (morning) journal where I let myself play with characters, scenes, sketches, taped in favorite pictures, and above all, dated every entry. I have two shelves full of these commonplace books, and they're not so much personal history as dreams on paper. Works for me. (Never give up...)
