Goodreads asked James R. Paddock:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

James R. Paddock I put my butt in the chair, open the computer and stare at it until my eyes bleed. When that doesn't work I go back a chapter or two, do sort of a gentle reboot. My current WIP stalled recently at 33,000 words. I went all the way back to the beginning and started editing. As per my routine, that'll happen three or four more times before the book is done. It's my way of staying engaged in the story.
