I totally know your pain. It's similar to a "writer's block".
Sometimes when I feel less inspired, I go take a good walk around the city. The hustle and bustle of random events inspire me to create random stories in my head. I sit at a cafe and look outside. I engage in conversations if the opportunity arises. People are walking storybooks, with some waiting eagerly to be read and some tightly shut. If you are willing to listen, you can hear what humanity has to offer (fear, hope, sadness, happiness, etc).

I also feel sometimes drawing from personal feelings can give some ideas. I guess when the surface-level ideas run out, you have to dig deeper. I think this s also another journey in parallel: understanding yourself and your past. It may fuel the fire needed to start your "train of thought" :)

Hope that helps!
