Do you read? Study anything? Noodle around with puzzles or technical problems (in any field)?

If so, try reacting to that. Write about something you've just learned and what further thoughts and questions it prompts. Write about something you've just read -- not necessarily a review, but perhaps the world-building grabbed you and you want to explore the setting more, or you just loved that one character and would invite him for dinner and conversation if you could (so what would you talk about?), or perhaps there's some problem you're trying to solve and doing the written equivalent of rubber-ducking it could lead you to a solution.

I find it helpful to do this on a blog rather than just for myself. The questions and comments I get help me to see where I've been unclear, and besides, the conversations can be interesting in their own right.
