This may sound strange but for me I think I'm always "processing" songs (subconsciously?) while in a writer's block! Often I'll go a month or more without writing anything then pen 12 or more songs in a week or two. Also: when I'm in the studio and under pressure to compose quickly I'll often times begin humming a melody of another song (either one of mine or maybe a blatant rip off of somebody elses!) then start improvising on that theme not unlike a jazz musician would do--modifying the melody and/or chord structure and/or timing. In no time at all I might not even recognize the original song! Add a bridge...lyrics...viola! a new song! I've written some of my best (and worst) songs this way  Cheers, Mark
