Goodreads asked Ryshia Kennie:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Ryshia Kennie Like every other job, you have to remember that you don't love everything about it. There are hours spent on administrative details that aren't writing, and combine that with long days writing and you're tired - especially in the marathon to a book's finish. Middle of the book, end of the book - wherever you are, sometimes you just need to take a vacation, see something new, look at the world with fresh eyes. Often I'll use those mini-vacations to read craft books and magazines. They always have a fresh perspective and reminders that get me motivated all over again - that is if the vacation hasn't done that already.
