Goodreads asked Tracy L. Ward:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Tracy L. Ward When I get writer's block it's most likely due to one of two things; either something in my current Work In Progress is not working or I'm lacking the right kind of inspiration to bring the story together. A good remedy is reading. I'll take a break from writing for a day or two and throw myself into a non-fiction text regarding the subject matter I'm trying to tackle in my novel or I'll read a novel from an author I admire. These techniques often give me the right push to get going again and steer me in the right direction.
