Can't think up of a good idea? Here's my advice, which I have practiced:
-Think up of 3 random things. Use the random article option on wikipedia if you must. After you get your 3 random things, try to connect them all story-wise, and make it part of the core of your idea. For example, I got Network termination 1; Qaleh Now, Nishapur; and Bheemgal via wikipedia. Now, the first refers to an equipment that shuts down the telecommunications in an area, the second is a village in Iran, and the third is a town in India. From that I could make a spy/hacker thriller, or maybe a Indo-Farsi cyberpunk world, or maybe a fantasy world loosely based in Persian and Indian motifs with a quest to find something that disrupts the magic in the kingdom.
-Another way is to think up a mundane, normal, everyday occasion or thing, and fantasizise it. Like, say, stopping for gas in the middle of the night. You can turn it into a post-apocalyptic wasteland where gas is scarce, and new mutated horrors lurk in the dark of night along with the old things that bump in the night. Or maybe throwing trash in the dump, you can spin it into a tale of finding a mystical place that can dispel a cursed item you've wanted to dispose.
Those are some of the techniques I use to generate creativity, hope it works for you!
