Unless the block is spiritual or medical in nature, I usually can work my way through it. Sit down, force myself to start writing, and then the flow will come. (I've got a full post on beating writer's block here: http://elenatintil.blogspot.com/2010/...)
But I also don't overpush myself. Trying to write too much at one time can dilute the story. Sometimes my ideas just need time to stew, so I'll focus on sewing or gardening for a few days until I feel certain about the next direction for the story.
