Goodreads asked Gail D. Storey:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Gail D. Storey For seven of the nine years I worked on my book, I Promise Not to Suffer: A Fool for Love Hikes the Pacific Crest Trail, I was in a writing group of well published writers. We met each week to read and critique each other's work in progress. Each of us who brought work that week had it critiqued for at least an hour, so I was highly motivated to have my current chapter ready for discussion. I went through many drafts of my book that way, without stalling from writer's block.
