On The First Night of NaNoWriMo

It's half an hour before the end of Day 1 into NaNo and I decided to post here instead of going to bed.

I thought I would use this month to start another novel or maybe even get some fanfic writing done.  The truth is I haven't been connecting with any of my story ideas, so I have trouble seeing them through.  I had hit a really good stride back in 2009, but now I'm running on empty again.  When I'm really in tune with a story, it comes alive on the page.  I can feel that my work is dragging but I don't know what to do to grease the wheels.

Hopefully inspiration will come...
