Stop that Muse!

There are those days... when we really just don't have the energy... when real life just seems so overwhelming, how can we ever enjoy ourselves when the rest of the party is counting on us? How do we survive when our muse escapes us?

I have been suffering a distinct lack of motivation, and I firmly blame the absence of my muse. I haven't gotten fully into the 4-years-in-the-future campaign. And I haven't been particularly moved to create an inspiring post to share with you all. So here's how I'm trying to win back my muse:

1. Reading inspirational literature. Not sunshine & light inspirational. D&D inspirational. I've recently discovered R.A. Salvatore's Forgotten Realms novels... I know, about 20 years after the rest of the population. But nevertheless, they have helped me remember all the awesomeness of D&D, and inspire me to get out there and roll some dice.

2. Reading other blogs. While I'm not a DM myself, I read a lot of the DM blogs... Dungeon Mastering dot com, Treasure Tables, Chatty DM, and many, many, many others. And they inspire me by reminding me that the game isn't just about me, it's about everyone else, including the DM.

So, what else can you recommend for finding my muse?
