Write through it. If you don't feel inspired, just write something -- even if you know it's bad. Even if you know you won't save it, just write something. Once you start writing, even the awful stuff, the good will follow: think of it like letting the tap run so that the rusty water gets out of the way and the clear water will follow!

WHEN DO I GET ANOTHER ONE? Oh, my, I can't tell you how much I enjoyed "A Spell of Murder!" I've had issues with "talking" cats in books before, but your cats always retain their essential "cattiness." I have to congratulate you on your very finely-drawn characters in ALL of your books, BTW...I despise flat, single-dimensioned characters, and every character you write has both warts and wings.
