Goodreads asked Zetta Elliott:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Zetta Elliott Usually I switch gears. If I'm stuck on a novel, I'll write poetry instead (haiku are quick and easy). I also try to absorb more stories--I watch TV, go see some art, or talk a walk near green things. Writing can drain you, so if you feel empty--fill yourself up again! I also try to trust myself and I've finished enough projects to know that I'll eventually sit down and start writing again.
