If you truly love writing, then never give up. Not everyone is going to like your style of writing, and that's okay. As writers, we need to accept the fact that some people are just going to hate every waking minute of our work and probably will bash us with a terrible review (which hurts a lot). But, that's okay. There are going to be lots of people who LOVED it. People who are in love with our style, our words, and the story we tell. Besides writing because we love to write (duh), those people who connect with our work make all the rejections, stress, and rollercoaster emotions worth it. :)

I find that talking to other writers about what they're working on helps to clear my block. Participating in online writing groups, reading books, listening to different kinds of music, preferably classical, piano, or orchestral pieces... Switching from writing on my computer to writing with pen and paper... Even changing writing locations, for example, instead of writing at my desk, I'll move to my spare room or backyard.
