Goodreads asked M.M. Justus:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

M.M. Justus I don't believe in writer's block as a thing in itself. There's always a reason for it, whether it's a character I've been trying to take down a road s/he doesn't want to go down, or something in my personal life, or anything in between. About the only thing to be done is to figure out what it is, then go back and fix it, or, if it's something in real life like the pneumonia I had in October, wait it out. The words always come back when I do that.
