Goodreads asked Irene Sauman:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Irene Sauman Writer's block occurs when you don't know what happens next in your story. My solution is to plot the story out first, so I have some idea of where I'm going. Doesn't mean you have to stick to it. You won't, as new ideas will come up in the writing, good ideas too, as you see more clearly the further you go. I do my plotting in an exercise book and add to it as ideas come during the writing.
