Goodreads asked Karina Lumbert Fabian:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Karina Lumbert Fabian I don't believe in writer's block. It sounds like some mysterious, outside force has stopped my writing. If I am not writing, something inside me is causing me to not write - a story intimidates me, I'm not happy with my current books sales, I'm feeling lazy... The only answer is to address the issue and to write, write, write, even if I don't feel like it. Imagine if lawyers got "blocked" or carpenters or police officers and then used that excuse to stop doing their work. Writing, while creative, is still something you must choose to do when the words don't come easily.
