I keep a notebook for ideas and new characters. Some are really great ideas and some not so much, but I keep them all the same. I have turned to my notebook several times to help me with problem areas of a story and sometimes those ideas that didn't seem good at first are great for that small problem. A couple years ago I was given a leather journal for Christmas. I will say that was one of the best gifts I was ever given, that journal now holds many of my notes and children's stories. If I have my journal, a notebook, pen, and a cup of coffee then I am very happy person. I hope inspiration finds you when you least expect it.
Lately, it feels like everywhere I turn I am being inspired to write a new story or an idea comes out of no where. That is a wonderful feeling. I have also experienced the other side of the coin when it felt like I would never be inspired to write again. Writer's Block can be an awful and overwhelming feeling. My only advice on writer block is to step a way from what you are writing for a little bit; get out go for a walk, read a book by an author that you have never read before, and just enjoy life. Once you have taken a small break, come back and see if things flow a little better Doing things that we love can spark a renewed energy in our writing. Also, trying new things can spark a new or different energy to your writing.
