There's no such thing. You get stuck sometimes; you don't feel like it - but that goes for any worker in any trade. Carpenters can't afford carpenters' block. Teachers can't afford teachers' block. Just get to your desk - or wherever you write - and just start; write anything. Eventually, you'll get going.

It's my job, so I've got a mortgage, and bills, to pay. When I wasn't writing full-time, I still treated it like a job. You've got to get to work everyday, even if you sometimes don't feel like it. Most days, once I get started, I do feel like it.
