Goodreads asked Cynthia Yoder:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Cynthia Yoder I usually write through it. I write whatever comes to mind, even it's the worst stuff I've ever written. Eventually you come out the other side. But you don't lose your muscle, so to speak, because you've kept up your routine. I also try to read in different genres. Mix it up as much as possible. This helped me a lot during one particularly long dry spell. I even got a cartoon book to draw cartoons and try something really different! Eventually, I began work that inspired me again.
