Or I approach my story from a different angle: from the end, another character's perspective, a romance scene, a what-if scenario, ect. If the way ahead is blocked, then why not jump ahead and work your way back?

Goodreads groups are good, too, because you talk with other authors and readers about what you love and why you love writing about it. Before you know it, you'll be eager to resume where you left off.(less)

“It is not often one chooses a demon over an angel.”

So they told me. But this demon was the only one who made me feel safe.”
Heather Heffner, Year of the Wolf

“My body slid from human to wolf in a crack! of black smoke. Wolf was panting and I watched frost dissipate on my hot tongue, sending tiny rivulets of steam into the air. The world was sharp and clear, and I never realized how many different colors of shadow there were. It made me savor the dark beauty of night even more.”
Heather Heffner, Year of the Wolf
