Your mind has no chop problems or limitations, it favors no key center, it flows linearly not vertically; trust it.
One of the hardest things to do is to leave your principle instrument alone and use your head to do the writing. When you use a familiar ax to write, the propensity is to favor the same licks, the same easy & familiar keys, the same chord progressions, in a nutshell, what you've always done and what comes easily. Sometimes changing instruments will trigger some new ideas. Just going from an acoustic instrument to an electric will do it. But better still, use you mind.
Ge a portable tape player (or digital voice recorder) and have it at the ready in your car, at the dinner table, wherever. Let the ideas come and then articulate them into the recorder. After you have this new material, then go to your score pad or workstation and play with it.
