    Hi Joe,
    Not sure if this will help or not, but I've heard Julia Cameron's "The Artist's Way" or something similar-sounding is a great creative guide.
    Hope this helps.

    I asked a question like that once on this forum, and I was told to go and read Stephen King's - On Writing. Twice. I did and am glad of it. That's more novel fiction than screenplay writing however....still the principle translates...just find a really famous playwright who has written a book on how to do it ;)
