Goodreads asked Steven McKinnon:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Steven McKinnon I'm very fortunate in that I've never encountered writer's block. Writer's-writing-being-rubbish and writer's-oh-my-god-what-am-I-doing-with-my-life I contend with daily, but never writer's block (so far!).

On the days where writing feels like I'm trudging through mud and the words on the page look like senseless squiggles, I'll do something else (i.e., eat something sugary). If it's a particular project I'm struggling with, I'll work on something different to get the creative juices flowing again.
