Here's an idea... go to an old folks home and ask for some crazy stories... also tell or read some of your own to them. Public service AND charity AND personal growth AND personal gain. It's a win-win-win-win situation. Go volunteer and get your juices flowing again.
For my juice, I'm coming in here... there's a lot of craziness in the relationships area. I'm also watching movies I've never heard of wondering if I can expand on them.
Just some thoughts.

Success stories about people who succeeded beyond all odds. These, so called, "rags to riches" stories sell extremely well and are reprinted again and again.
Health stories where people overcome desperate health problems and soldier on to lead a happy life are also popular.
An abandoned pet who faces starvation and death and by some miracle ends up being adopted - only to become a hero by saving someone's life, makes a winning story. Most magazines would jump on this.
Hope this helps.

Gossip about celebrities, especially their dirty laundry. If You can not find a story, do what so many others have done in the past: make one up and hope that no body bothers to check the facts.

Well the boys in the press corp seem to love "Support the war in Iraq unless of course you want the war to come to the United States." Fiction is big. Big, I tell ya.
