I wrote three chapters of a new book last week. It was all I could think about. Then, in a miniscule microsecond fraction of irrelevant time, the spark fizzled. It’s a good thing I write these ideas down.
This week, I assembled my bare-bones recording studio, and I played. I played and wrote. At one point, I spent an hour searching for the correct tone I liked for a specific song. I cried a little when I discovered it.
My creativity seems to ebb and flow with the weather. I’m more artistic on cooler, wetter days.
Also, there’s a few other things not listed here that are floating around out there. Best of luck with the hunt.

I can’t answer why, but I have the same issue. I am much more creative on rainy days. I like to work and create as much as I can when it is dreary outside. It’s been that way my whole life. I thought it was just me, so glad it isn’t!
