Is “writer’s block” an inability to advance a particular story, or an inability to write anything?

If the former, go for a walk. Maybe go for a long drive (and don’t have the radio on). Think through the plot straitjacket you made for yourself. Perhaps set the document aside and work on something else: I find it good to have two or three stories in mind at any given time so you don’t feel like a failure just because one of them needs to marinate for a bit.

If the latter, perhaps you’re tired? Make a deliberate break from writing, get some exercise, tire yourself out and get a good night’s sleep. Maybe deal with the ‘real life’ things that are bothering you. Fiction can wait – and sometimes all becomes clear while you’re doing something physical and leaving your mind to freewheel, like painting the skirting boards.(less)

“the Professor finished up with something called ‘new historicism”
Bryony Marsh, In Cold Blood

“Be a sadist. No matter how sweet and innocent your leading characters, make awful things happen to them -- in order that the reader may see what they are made of."

[From the preface.]”
Kurt Vonnegut, Bagombo Snuff Box

“It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.”
Andre Gide, Autumn Leaves

“As he read, I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once.”
John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

“Women can change better’n a man,” Ma said soothingly. “Woman got all her life in her arms. Man got it all in his head.”
“Man, he lives in jerks-baby born an’ a man dies, an’ that’s a jerk-gets a farm and looses his farm, an’ that’s a jerk. Woman, its all one flow, like a stream, little eddies, little waterfalls, but the river, it goes right on. Woman looks at it like that. We ain’t gonna die out. People is goin’ on-changin’ a little, maybe, but goin’ right on.”
John Steinbeck, The Grapes of Wrath

“Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn.

In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming.
H.P. Lovecraft
