Goodreads asked Helena Halme:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Helena Halme I think research is a good way around writer's block, but my problem is getting the time to write. On the odd occasion when I've sat there, in front of a blank screen, I tend to go to Google and look at pictures on the topic in general, or find out about what was happening in the world in the time I'm writing about. Mostly, though, I just force myself to write by telling myself that it doesn't matter if the words are rubbish, as long as I get going I can write a good chapter.
