Goodreads asked Sarah Zolton Arthur:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Sarah Zolton Arthur I have a couple of ways to combat writer's block. First, I write down any random idea that comes to my head, whether it's related to a book I'm writing or not. The act of writing sparks the brain and gets those brain juices flowing. The second way, especially if I have a deadline, is to read a book in the genre of what I'm writing in. For example, if I'm writing a contemporary romance, I pick up one of my favorite contemporary romances and reread it, thinking about my manuscript the whole while. This will get me going so I can usually put the book down and start writing again.
