Hmm... I do my best not to hope for inspiration. If I waited for inspiration, I doubt I would have any finished books. Instead, I treat writing as blue-collar work. I show up at my desk, I give myself permission to be a crappy writer, and I write. After I have words on the page, I can work to make them better, but I can't make better what's not there.
That said, there are moments when inspiration visits, when the words flow almost as if taking dictation. When that happens, I am grateful for as long as it lasts, and I try to still be grateful after the inspiration has passed and I am back to my blue-collar work.
