There's nothing like "writer's block". That's when a writer is not writing, so (s)he's not a writer, right?
Writer's block is a name to designate the fact you don't know what to write. It means there's something wrong: character, lame plot points, a story that is not a function of the character itself.
Get back to your synopsis and notes, find what doesn't work, fix it and get back to work.
If it's exhaustion from having written for too long a single project, always keep a secondary "B" project you can turn to to change mood.
Stick to the #2pagesaday rule. If you write a little, every day, you have a rythm that won't break even when you're under pressure.
