Goodreads asked Barbara Claypole White:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Barbara Claypole White Fortunately this is not something I suffer from. I do have plenty of bad writing days, but the trick for me is always to let more writing be the cure. I treat it like any bad day: you keep doing what you have to do and know tomorrow gives you a fresh start. If I'm really stuck, I tend to do a stream of consciousness exercise that might end up in the trash, or might inspire a new scene. I am very organic writer, so I never have a problem taking detours.
