Goodreads asked Brendan Nolan:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Brendan Nolan Sit down and write something else until exhaustion comes.
Then, go back to the original difficulty and most times it's vanished.
Or.
Continue writing anything that comes to mind, even gibberish for as long as it takes for the creative mind to return.
Later, you can go back and assess the gibberish.
Sometimes, some of it can be recovered.
