Goodreads asked Angel Leya:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Angel Leya It depends on what's blocking me. A glance back at the overall picture can help me fill in the gaps in the plot. A quick breeze through the internet can also provide inspiration - I've recently found pinterest to be a particularly valuable source of visual stimulation. Bouncing my ideas off of my husband can help, and thinking in terms of movie scenes, since I'm so visual, can bring the inspiration I need. I read an article once that encouraged writers to find the "magic cookies" in their writing. It made sense; if you don't enjoy what you're writing, your reader won't either.
