When I'm in the middle of writing a novel (as I am right now!) I think about the story all the time. I know I need to make progress, so I schedule time at the desk and force myself to do it. It's satisfying to see the word count go up.
When I'm in a more playful mood--like when I write flash fictions for my social media and website--I find an intriguing graphic or photo, or create one on Canva and use that as a prompt. That more fun because I know I can finish it in one sitting. These tend to be chick lit/women's fiction rather than mystery.
