Set a timer and don't stop writing - even if you hit creative blocks, keep your pen moving with stream-of-consciousness until ideas flow again. Start with a simple prompt like 'a character finds something unexpected in their pocket' and let the story surprise you - time pressure often produces more creative results than endless planning.
