I thought about this for a while. Anything I choose not to fully rationalize, any idea that extends beyond the pale horizon - all can become a source of great mystery. Quite sure there is a place for it in everyone's life, including mine. In my life though, the bearer of the mystery is lucid dreaming.

Two friends were lost in a forest at night, one of them asking - hey, you think you could tell me a two-sentence horror story? And that was the last time anyone heard from them.

My trilogy Silent Legacy is inspired by a dream, in which there was a good, somewhat angry and lonely detective chasing a beautiful woman. With some additions of my own, of course.

Try a bunch of other things, before you want to become a writer. If you get hooked on something else rather than writing, consider yourself lucky.

you get to live in your own world.

Part 1 of a quadrilogy "Mathematical Beings". Book 1 will be a social and political fiction, a dystopia, a satyre... kind of all in one. A gateway to a nighmarish future, which I try to make it as real as possible.

Try working on something unfinished, don't push for a completely new book. Reconnect to your past ideas, feel them, relive them, see them in a new light. Change your regular pace of writing and give yourself more freedom (including from writing). Before you know it, it should all come back.

That would definitely be one of the amazing worlds desbribed by the mathematical being... but that book isn't out yet - I am still working on it ;) What would I do there? good question. Maybe just admire it in awe.

it was "The Active Side of Infinity" by Carlos Castaneda, but I did not read much, since I tried to spend as much time outdoors doing something.

It may sound as a cliché, but feel like I was born for it - I wanted to write before I knew how to read (and how to write too) and all my life I have been seeing everything around me as a source of inspiration - people, events, blue sky, fire, stars... without even thinking about it much, so I don't feel I am making any kind of effort to get inspired - for my brain it is natural to see everything around me as a potential inspiration (and ideas)
