Goodreads asked Mark Binder:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Mark Binder My initial answer was this: I only have writers' block when I don't think someone is going to read my work. Otherwise, I keep writing! (Sorry I didn't see this, I was writing.)

In retrospect, it's a little more complex. I've trained myself to write when I need to. If there's a deadline or an event or a timely piece needed, I sit down and write it. It's when there is little in the way of urgency that I am "blocked" -- but it's not really blocked so much as inert.

Does that make sense?
