Goodreads asked Surajit Roy:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Surajit Roy There is no one answer to this question as different people deal with writer's block in different ways. Some people may take a break from writing, others may try to write through the block, while others may come up with ideas for other projects to work on until the block is gone.

As I want to be an aspiring better writer, I think about when I will most productively and try to write during that time. I also think about what temperature and noise level I am comfortable with, because if I’m uncomfortable it will be harder to write. I also put in time on the calendar for writing and stick to it. And finally, I use filler words when I was writing, because they can help me get to the idea I am searching for.
