Where don't I get inspired?
I'll write just about anything, even if just a grocery list when the need to write arises (okay, so maybe that won't curb the craving-but you get the point.)
I'm inspired to write by anything that makes me feel-anything. If the feeling is intense, all the better.
All of my feelings, life, relationships- have a soundtrack (think about it, I bet yours do too!) So music, is my main source of inspiration and the key to most of the memories I hold with all those feelings.
Love, is my the best "feeling muse", even the memory of love. Losing love, denying love, running from it like my life depends on it before realizing-my life does, depend, on IT.
Anger, sorrow and excitement over anything make me want to write. Sometimes, the best way for me to connect to the darker feelings is to write them out (which is more satisfying than destroying something.)
Sex......Some is inspirational....and some, just makes you inspire and then expire (*sigh*.)

I'm working on the next in the Not Even Death series-STILL Your Master.
In this one Calico gets paired with a hot, Dominant rock star. Needless to say, I'm enjoying this one immensely.
Check out the teaser about Blaze St. Sebastian at my blog.

I'm still an aspiring writer, aspiring to write more. So, my advice is to write- whatever comes to mind. If it's crap, put it aside, and write some more.
Travel, and really absorb your environment. When no one is around, in the morning or night, sit down...and look and listen to everything you'd miss if you didn't just stop. Write it down.

I can deal with it a few ways. Sometimes, I'll step away and change my scenery completely and come back and try anew.
The most common way, is to look (in my case, listen) for inspiration. I'll listen to music that may inspire, watch videos, or something on T.V. might flip a switch. More often than not, it's music.
The last way, is to just close up shop for a week and let my brain clear out. I hate it when I have to do that!
