I generally have a good idea where I want the piece I'm writing to go. If I just jump in with both feet, I find that after a while my creativity takes over and I'll make progress.
There's always editing to do on the current book and old stories lying around to be resurrected. If I'm really stuck, a trivial event, a book I'm reading, something I've seen, or an overheard conversation will often set me off on a new story or blog entry.
There's always something to write about. Maybe not what you think you should write, but that's when surprising destinations are found.
