Barbara Diesel asked Lauren Oliver:

Do you ever get writers block? And if so how do you cope with it? :)

Lauren Oliver So, writer's block is when the critical part of your brain starts to overtake the creative part of your brain. The only cure for it is to keep writing, even if you think it's all bad. Remember, you can always fix it later! It's better to write something terrible than to write nothing at all.
