It depends. If the writer's block lasts more than a day or two, then I pretend it doesn't exist, and force myself to grind out words, even if I think they are terrible. If it's a temporary block, then I will go do something else for a while--go to the gym, garden, clean--something to help clear out my head. It's easy to get so caught up in the writing that suddenly what I'm doing doesn't make sense any more.
