Question writer's block's existence. Perhaps, it does not exist at all. Motivate yourself daily to write (and you may have to “trick” yourself sometimes). The next time you reach a lull, ram the nose of “writer's block” and write something, anything. Make your blockage a myth!
On your first draft, be creative, write! Include everything that pops into your head. Do not worry over every line--that's editing! The first draft is about writing. Later, you can (and should) refine the words and take out elements that might hurt your chances for a sale.
