Goodreads asked Fern Schumer Chapman:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Fern Schumer Chapman A long time ago, I learned that the assumption that motivation results in productivity is wrong-headed. The truth: productivity results in motivation.

When I have writer's block, I do something to free my mind -- take a walk ride my bike, even drive the car. Then, when I return home, I start working again, angling into what I'm writing any way I can. Once I get started, usually, I can't stop.
