Goodreads asked Jacob Nordby:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Jacob Nordby I always ask myself, "what am I afraid of here?"
Because writer's block is just another name for fear. Also, I recently read something that is seriously true.
"You can't think your way out of a writing block. You can only write your way out of a thinking block."
That helps but sometimes the only thing for it is to go take a hike in the hills near my house. Or talk to a friend who makes me laugh. Something about that kind of conversation always lights up my imagination.
