Goodreads asked Sima B. Moussavian:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Sima B. Moussavian I personally have never actually experienced it. What I noticed, though, is that writing gets harder, the deeper you dig into things you are genuinely feeling. Good writing has to be genuine, though, it has to come from deep down and feel honestly felt. I'd say writer's block is, in many cases, due to not allowing yourself to feel what you are currently feeling over a particular situation in your life. If the cause is self preservation of this sort then facing your own demons is a way out.
