Goodreads asked Kerri Carpenter:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Kerri Carpenter I don't really believe in writer's block. At least not in the traditional way that we think of it. I do believe that sometimes other things get in the way of your creative process - day jobs, family, friends, dating, children, pets, cleaning, stress, money, diets - life! When that happens to me and I can't seem to push "life" out of the way so I can write a page or two, I get up and do something else. Go for a walk, take a Zumba class, cook, take my dog for a long walk, watch a movie, get a mani/pedi. Usually, just doing something else helps clear out my head and I can get back to the writing.
