Goodreads asked Shannon K. Butcher:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Shannon K. Butcher I’m on of those authors who doesn’t believe in writer’s block. As much as I love writing, it is my job, and like any other job, there are days when I’d rather do something else. I find that it’s a matter of discipline to write no matter how I feel, even if it’s a struggle. Most of the time when I push myself, the words start to flow after a few minutes. Unless I’m bleeding or on fire, there’s really no excuse not to at least sit down at the keyboard and try to write something worth keeping. Some of my best writing happens on days when I really didn’t feel inspired to write at all.
