When I have writer's block, a break turns into an episode of a television show, which turns into a video game, which turns into me getting tired, which turns into me doing this for three or four days. The only way to break it is to work. Work through it. I know it's the last answer you want to hear, but that's it.
In music composition, you are taught that writer's block is a trick of the mind, and it is the sign of a lack of practice. Someone who writes every day, who is used to the routine of writing, whatever they may choose to do during that routine, doesn't find themselves blocked nearly as often. The great composers who wrote everyday for their living never mentioned writer's block, and I feel the same spreads across to writing narrative as well.
