I tend to sit down and read a good book, usually in the fantasy genre. Sometimes I get inspired to make a character that way, because I see something I could envision working where ever I am currently RP'ing. I've RP'ed for five years now, had that wall come up a few times. I've also had full on burnouts, and to that I can only say, don't force yourself to RP - it only makes it worse.
