I usually find a new place to write or I switch to a different story or essay. Usually, if I am blocked it means that I have some fear about the piece I am trying to write. So, it's helpful to write all the fears down in one place and then dispose of the paper. I like burning it!
Sometimes, if I'm blocked I will play a game of trying to write at least 100 words or 250 words in 10 minute intervals. This is something I learned when I did the National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) challenge in 2014. Writing sprints are great because they help us get past our inner critics.
