In a sentence: Write through it.
Complicated answer: Write through it, make a note of the section where you may not be entirely happy what's there and advance the story and come back to it. Find solutions later instead of fixating on the writer's block.

Humanity has a rooted desire to share stories. Ancestors have sat around the fire telling stories about their families, their myths, or themselves. To be able to add my story into this endless tradition is something that I take a lot of pride in. Even if I never become famous, my story will outlive me ... and that's pretty cool.

Currently, I'm nearly finished with a first draft of Part 3 of my 5 Part Fantasy Series "The Path of the Celts."

Finish what you're working on. Even if you believe it isn't good enough. You will learn way more from writing a draft that "fails" than you do by stopping halfway through a draft and giving up.

Middle Earth is the obvious answer. While not a book, I would love to see Hyrule particularly from Ocarina of Time. Seeing the Village, swimming with Zora's, annoying the Lake Hylia fisherman ... that's what dreams are made of.

There is a deeply personal moment that happened on January 3rd, 2008. My sister was killed in a car crash while my family and I were in a hotel room in Disney. On the night of January 2nd, I was offered to go back to my sister's house and stay there. I said no. How would January 3rd, 2008, be different had I said yes?
