Getting Out of a Writing Rut

The other day, I sent a question out into the Instasphere: What do you (as an author) do to get yourself out of a writing funk? (Or, if you prefer, out of a writing rut? I'm using the word "funk" as more of a lack of motivation in this case.)

It's been difficult lately for me to focus on any of my projects. You might have noticed that we didn't have a blog post last week, which I do apologize for! Also, my planned blog interviews for June and July were both pushed back, which couldn't be helped but my schedule has been a bit off ever since.

I was so grateful to those of you who chimed in on Instagram! Here are some of the awesome responses I received from my fellow writers, as well as a few suggestions I've gathered from other resources:

• "Switching back to pen and paper often works for me as well. A notebook I love, and multicoloured pens are just the ticket." (From @vpgrey)
• "Go for a walk or run in the park or on the beach or drawing/ sketching things from my book meanwhile I listen some music that inspire me." (From @sonya_falcon) 
•  The always awesome Jenna Moreci offers her Top 5 Tips for Staying Motivated While Writing Your Book. ("But, Jenna!" - Fans of her YouTube channel will understand!)
• WritersEdit.com published an article that discusses how to recognize if you're in a writing rut, and offers their own tips for how to break the cycle. 

What are your tips and tricks to getting out of that writing rut? How do you stay motivated when your WIP seems like it's at a stand-still? I'd love to know!
