Just find your Muse. As a writer, anything can inspire me. In college, I hit a writers block on an essay due one Monday. An hour before class, I said the heck with it, and started writing an essay on why I couldn't write the essay assigned. Third sentence in, the block lifted, I wrote the assigned essay in half an hour, showed up late for class, told instructor why, and she was understanding. Also got the first A of the term in that class for my quickie essay.
