Goodreads asked Beverly Engel:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Beverly Engel I've learned through the years to stop pushing myself to write when I don't feel inspired. Instead I use my time re-reading what I've already written and doing some editing. I've learned to trust that my creative juices will return, especially if I don't try to push through any writer's block but instead just trust that it is there for a reason. Often times it isn't really a "writer's block" at all but a need to rest from writing or a need to assimilate what I've already written.
