What I Do About Writer's Block

Yesterday was THE.  PERFECT.  WRITING DAY.  Snow falling, fire in the fireplace, no where to be...  So I sat down and began working on a project.  It's a project I've been working on for months.  You'd think it was an epic 7000 page novel.  It's just a short story.  Maybe 2000 words.
I rewrite a lot.  It's just how I work. 
I sat down to rewrite, with some additions in mind. 

What's that?  Dishes need to be washed?  Okay. 
I got up.  I washed a couple of dishes and thought, "Oh, this is an evil ploy by my brain to avoid thinking!"  So I gently nudged Velcro out of the red recliner, and assumed my writing position. 

Laundry.  I really should put a load in the wash. 
No, I should write. 
Just start a load and it can run while you write, you'll be multi-tasking. 
Fine. 
I put a load in the wash, poured another cup of coffee, and settled back into the recliner, noting that cats can truly produce the most evil and bone-chilling glare.

That fire is about to go out, better stoke it. 
Look brain, we are going to settle down and write.  That is that.  You are expending way more energy avoiding the task than just settling down and doing it. 
I stoked the fire.  Velcro glared.

Yesterday wasn't a great example of managing writer's block.  Here's what I do that helps: 

1. Write every day.  Every stinking day.  Don't worry about grammar, spelling, content, omitting or adding swear words.  Just do it.  Eventually you find that this task becomes your boot-camp for all other writing.  You are training yourself to let your mind go, and to press through and write.  No.  Matter.  What.  I write 3 pages per day, longhand.  It is some of the most miserable and unreadable tripe to ever emit from a pen...  If anyone ever read it, penmakers around the world would throw their hands in the air and scoff, "Really?  That is what she used these for?  Disgusting!"
2. Write.  Really.  If you're sitting down to write and your mind is totally not there, just start writing words.  Any words.  Even if it's unrelated to your project.  Write your name, a shopping list, it doesn't matter.  Keep doing it.  Next thing you know you'll be immersed in your project.  Or you won't, but you'll have your shopping list done.
