I love creating new races, religions, cultures, monsters, and cities for the roleplaying games I play. So I have a pretty vivid imagination. Perhaps you should take up playing roleplaying games like Dungeons & Dragons it might help to build up your imagination,
Even if it doesn't help your creativity it's fun and I've found it's one of the easier ways for me to socialize. I think it's because there are guidelines and I know what sort of interaction is expected of me and others.
As for the OP hopefully you can console yourself with being more creative than the kid I do respite care for who's creative ideas contain such original figures as the wizard Henry Potter and Werewolf Danny (i.e. Danny Phantom but half werewolf instead of half ghost). He also once decided to write a script for a sequel to the movie Zathura. He didn't get very far but it was the same dialog and situations as the original movie.
Edit: I did personally find I got more creative as I got older. Maybe the same will happen with you and the kid I work with.
