Does anyone else ever feel that they have run out of ideas?

That they are just telling the same story over and over again with only the most minor of variations?

I’ve been stuck on the same chapter of the same story for two and a half months, trying to figure out what to write next because I’ve written every variation before, sometimes twice.

Should I just give up?

    Yeah – that’s going to be kind of hard since the central plot revolves around them having to be at Hogwarts :)

    But I take your point – and most of my recent stories have been post Hogwarts stories (when pretty much everything is up for grabs) or wildly AU stories (where I took the canon out back and shot it). But this one is very AU but needs to follow the plot a little which is where I am coming unstuck.

      Haha that’s a good reason not to switch then!! I wish I had some better advice to give
