Philip K. Dick had perhaps the most effective solution for writers block: amphetamines. Over his 30 year career, he wrote 44 novels and 121 short stories.
Of course it wasn't without its downsides, including psychosis, multiple suicide attempts, being abusive to his partners, and eventually dying aged 54 of a stroke.
