Goodreads asked Sylvia Shults:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Sylvia Shults Fortunately, I don't get writer's block very often. But when I get panicky about finishing a book, or working on it (which is, I think, a good definition of writer's block), I go small. I focus on one part of the book. Then I narrow down to one scene in that one part. Looking at the details helps me start putting one foot in front of the other. Before I know it, I'm off and working again.
