I write all the time.
No seriously, when I'm not writing I'm plotting to take over the world.

It is an old wooden table that was once part of a tailor shop occupying the garage of a house that I owned in another life.

I had the luxury of growing up in south central Pennsylvania.
Relatively modern with just a touch of backwoods.
We were not rich by any stretch of the imagination, but it made it possible for me to not have to worry about where my next meal came from, as opposed to say...Africa or Syria, where survival occupies most of your waking thoughts.

I am just finishing my seventh novel. It is called "A Moderne Guide To Witchcraft - A Magical Comedy."
Here is the blurb:
Imagine a very special book.
One that has survived in its original form since the time of Constantine the Great.
A secret and powerful book, one full of magic and the knowledge of the ancients.
Travel with this book and the people who come in contact with it, from 300 AD and the newly created capital of the Holy Roman Empire, across the Mediterranean, Europe, the Atlantic Ocean, and North America, to eventually wind up in the tiny town of Armadillo, Texas in the present day.
Meet Sarah Wisinski, middle aged, divorced, brewery worker, and dreamer, who discovers the ancient tome at a yard sale, and along with her two good friends Becky and Laura Beth, set out to unlock its secrets.
Things go pretty well for their efforts, with only a couple of minor mishaps, until the book’s use catches the attention of the “Heavenly Host,” and then all hell breaks loose.
Enter 67 year old Susan Linkinogger, Wiccan high priestess, voodoo princess, and zombie killer. Heaven help us all, because it just might take Susan and her “ladies of the night,” a couple hundred rounds of incendiary shotgun shells, and a little bit of luck, to save the town of Armadillo and the world from the looming apocalypse.

I really don't have a problem with writer's block, for me the phrase is just another excuse for me to be lazy.

Write.
The more you write the better you will get.
In my opinion the magic is in the rewrite.
