I listen to music that suits the "theme" and "feeling" of the initial idea for the story. Watching movies and shows set in the era I'm writing about, or that are similar to the genre also helps. Some days are better than others, where I wake up and know that it'll be a good writing day. Other days, I don't write at all, because I'm not in the correct headspace.
