My champion and character I planned on developing a story around passed away. How do I continue writing and progressing? For several years I had/have a storyline based on my champion in life. She happened to be a dog with diabetes and I developed a storyline around her. Inspired, I painted canvases of her friends in the wilderness. Amazing development, literally brought to life.

I also wrote and developed several characters. However, since she passed away, I don't feel her positive energy. Thus I feel restricted in developing the story. I no longer feel that flow of ideas and imagery as I did when she was alive. 

I want to get back to the point where I feel such profound inspiration, but how? Her living spirit was so inspirational. Now that her ashes are in a glass box, somehow it all feels muted. I'm looking to find a way to find the original ideas and energy even though that energy and love is no longer here.
