Goodreads asked Shirley Penick:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Shirley Penick I write beginning to end, I don't skip around. Usually when I get writer's block it's about a specific scene and how to handle it. So I put in a comment for what needs to happen and then go on to the next scene. After I get to "The End" I go back and fix those scenes I left out. Unless I get some kind of brilliant idea for one of those skipped scenes, then I go back and fix it right away.
