Goodreads asked Shine Syamaladevi:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Shine Syamaladevi Once only I've experienced writer's block. It was a stalemate kind of situation. There was no path ahead for my protagonist. He stood confused, looking around, expecting light from any part of the world.
I was truly worried. I felt that I am drained off my writing prowess. Then, I decided to wait.
Wait for the hero to find his way out.
And gladly, on the third day, while returning from evening walk,the way ahead materialized in front of me in the form of a girl. It was a windy evening and she was crossing the bridge nearby my home. She had her head covered with a gray scarf.
So my dear budding writers, don't panic in case of writer's block. Just wait. Wait. Wait for the protagonist to do something. Give him some time to channelize his thoughts. And surely he/she will know what to do next.
