Goodreads asked Fan T. C.:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Fan T. C. There are two types of blocks: 1) I know where I'm going, but I'm stuck in the mud, and 2) I don't know where I'm going. With 1, you just have to throw it in four wheel drive and plow through it. Sit down and write even if it hurts. With 2, I like to exercise patience, maybe take some time off to review the story, where it's going, how it will end, etc. It doesn't hurt to rest your brain. Just don't lax into bad habits during this break.
