When you are stuck, if you humbly pay attention to all the details of what you will be working on when you stop being stuck, you find you are moving again. Make a laundry list of everything you are going to put in. You can sit and visualize the scene and the characters as if you were watching a movie. The more clearly you can picture it, the more clearly you can write it.
