I suppose if I were to experience a lack of ideas I would refer to my notebook and just start playing around with one of my incomplete works. I also write in the wee hours of the morning when my mind and soul are clear of the dispersals of the day, that is when the muse is stronger than any block one might be creating for oneself. (less)
