Loving your story and characters definitely helps, so you're on the right path. I just try to get back into the characters' lives, especially if it's in 1st person. It's like reconnecting with old friends, and writing out the story is like making new memories with them. They're friends that only you know about, and the only way to share their stories with the world is to write.

Have you tried creating a 'soundtrack' for your story? I have playlists connected to all of my writing projects. I use songs that remind me of my story, my characters, certain scenes, and even the relationships between my characters. Sometimes I'll just play a computer game and listen to my playlist and start to get the feel of the story again. It makes me want to sit down and write about it.

I'm very driven by my characters. I get to know them so well in my head, and I can't wait to share them with others. Just find what helps you connect to your story in a way that you can't help but want to write it again. Good luck! :)
