View post (How do I start?)

I am stuck in a rut when it comes to writing my own material. I'v gotten to know the Ionian (major), Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian (minor), and Locrain scales/modes. Should ideas for a song just come to? or are there things I should do before song-wirting? or should I try to play those modes all along the neck and get to know the fretboard better and then just mess around with those modes?
