Goodreads asked Dean Whitlock:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Dean Whitlock I write something else for awhile. Or I go back to the start of the chapter and start editing it. Or I write a stream-of-consciousness "plot synopsis" of the next scene - letting it spew out, bad grammar and all, with no hindrance from my onboard editor/censor/critic/jerk. The important thing is to keep writing. You can always fix it in the rewrites.
