That's a hard one - I'm not really certain as I'm always getting ideas for stories and characters. Mainly, I guess because I enjoy doing it.

Write and keep learning the craft. Join a writing group and if there is none close to you, start up your own. There's info out there on the net on how to run groups. Go to conferences and workshops so you can both network with like minded people and learn. I've made some lovely friends this way too. Find a critique partner who's work you enjoy reading and who you trust.

Making up your own worlds and characters and letting them face danger while I'm nice and safe :)

Sometimes I take a break from writing - depends on my deadlines - and listen to music, walk my dogs, read, watch crime shows etc, really just replenish my creativity well. Often I'll go back and revisit my characters goals, motivation and conflicts and both their backstories and the external story line backstory. Most of the time, I find my answers if its a story reason that's stopped me from moving forward.
