I take a break from whatever I'm working on and play a game or start a character study for one of the books or games that I love. As hilarious as it sounds, most of my inspiration comes from games like the Sims franchise or Skyrim.
So if I've got 20 novels in the works, how do I keep up with them all? Anytime I get writer's block for one, I choose three others to cycle between. I only ever have four at most that I am actively working on. I find that as I am working on one novel, that part that I'm stuck on in another will easily resolve itself.
In short, I deal with writer's block by having the attention span of a dog at the park!(less)

Whenever I'm waiting somewhere, it feels good to just whip out my notebook and work on a novel or just brainstorm. Of course, this gets me in trouble sometimes with starting new novels and has honestly turned me into a workaholic, but that's beside the point.
Also, I think having so many characters residing in your head means you start to see things from another angle, having had to get in that headspace for a particular narrator.(less)
