I recently finished "The Artist's Way," and however you feel about that book, one observation Julia Cameron makes is valid: writer's block is fear. Just write through the fear. The morning pages, and just writing other stuff in a notebook longhand (which I used to hate), broke me out of a months-long block and into finishing my novel.
