Dreams. I live with a vivid imagination. I dream in 3-D, technicolor, and occasionally with my eyes open. This is a bane when it comes to nightmares. I will not watch horror movies. This same imagination makes writing easier. I not only see but also experience what I'm writing. Some nights I wake up with whole scenes playing through my head, vivid with setting, dialog, action, and emotion. I scribble furiously in the 2am glow of the kitchen nightlight, then catch more sleep.
Another creative jump-start is talking out story ideas with my husband, children, or my writing friends.
Most of all, books are fuel to my imagination. I read all the time and in many genres.

I am interested in reading one of your books to get to know you as an author. What one would you recommend I start with? I am a fan of R.J. Anderson, Megan Whalen Turner, CS Lewis, and Intisar Khanani, just to give you an idea of the types of fantasy I read and enjoy.
