Goodreads asked D. Clarence Snyder:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

D. Clarence Snyder I edit. Or I work on something else, something that exercises different parts of the brain. Sometimes I'll draw a comic for some other storyline, or I'll work on a cover--really, anything that lets me feel like I'm making forward progress, or that I'm accomplishing something--but without getting caught up in the same kind of thought process that has me stopped on whatever I'm writing.
