When you have writers block and have no clue what your next hub is going to be about, what do you do? Where do you get your ideas from?
I get a lot of inspiration from looking at pictures. I may see one and think it would make an interesting hub.
Many Hubbers turn to Exclusives or Weekly Topic Inspiration. Personally, I don't force myself and wait for something in my life to come up that I have to learn about or can share in a useful manner (e.g. fixing an elliptical machine or getting a procedure done).
Well I mostly stick to poetry but even then any inspiration comes to me from songs and music. Interesting things in nature and thoughts and memories. If I write about certain topics they're usually about things that I enjoy and would like to share with others.

I suggest having a separate thread for Weekly Topic Inspiration. Currently, it is blended in with Hubber's Hangout. If it has its own forum, if you cannot write about the current topic or want additional inspiration for hubs, there is a handy way to find the older threads.
