I don't get writer's block anymore. For most of my life I suffered permanent creative block, however. As a full-time artist this was disastrous, and it eventually forced me to really sort myself out and learn to understand creative flow (and block).
I now find that because I properly prepare to write before I sit down to write, I'm always ready to flow.
You can read my favourite cures for creative block on my blog or get my system, Create Now!: A Systematic Guide to Artistic Audacity.

After more casually mentoring artists for years I decided to create a set system to use so that my practice could be more thorough, efficient, and consistent. So I sat down and wrote a guide that dealt with every step from being wildly inspired on demand to making a living in a fulfilling way. I made it multiple choice specifically to address individual needs quickly without a huge process.
The idea came from a great need I saw for creatives to have a holistic and practical system so they can really succeed in all ways, regardless of education or circumstances, and really create the inspired life that we seem to crave deep down.
It turned out so well I thought it would be helpful to people on a larger scale, so I sent it to Chronicle and they enthusiastically snapped it up!
