Keep a notebook with you. Be curious. Collect wonderful moments.
If you're not enjoying your writing, write something different.
Go for a walk. Look at something. Draw it badly. Overhear conversations. Use a different pen. Start at the exciting bit. Don't worry about getting it right. Write it again. Read. Talk to people who like books. Only show your writing when you're ready. Trust people when they say something doesn't work, but don't trust their advice on how to fix it. Keep writing. Keep writing.
