I don't get writer's block. I never understood this term and why it's only attached to writers. Writing to me is a craft. If you don't know what comes next that's because you've skipped a step in the writing process. You can't always pass an exam you didn't study for. A crucial part of writing is thinking about what should happen next for a good while away from your keyboard. Go for a walk, go do something that frees your mind to mull over your story in your head. I do this often as I'm lying down to go to sleep so that I'm prepared for the next days writing session. Works every time. Breaks for thinking about the story are one of the most important parts of the craft.
