Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
The best advice I can give you is something that my creative writing professor told me in college!. First, there is a difference between the story you want to write and the story that wants to be written ( I didn't know what he meant until I finished my project)!.

Secondly, writing is a process, sometimes the best thing to do is walk away from the project and come back to it at a later date!. When working on my project, I took 2 weeks off and it made a huge difference!. Best of luck, feel free to e-mail me if you need or want more advice!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Just don't write anything for a few days, and do some totally random stuff that's fun, like go to an amusement park or swimming somewhere or something!. Just do stuff that will keep your mind off what you're writing, and then go back in a few days and you'll be fine, and you might be surprised how many ideas you have!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

oh, the pain that is writers block!.
especially for fanfictions XD i'd know!.
when i'm overcoming my writer's block, i immediately take up another project!. either it being something plausible or something in my own world!. then sometimes if i like where it's going, i'll take the context for that mini project and put it into my main!.
everyone has different methods, but hope i could help!Www@QuestionHome@Com
