Hello, well I'm writing a story that actually doesn't suck too much. And that's saying something for me. Anyways, I've completed six chapters and now I'm on chapter seven. Unfortunately I've no idea on how to start it; so since I seem to have writers block I was wondering if people could tell me how they get over it.

Thanks in advance!

You could put it away for a few days, and spend the time doing something else. Take a walk, or spend some time with family and/or friends. Then come back to it. If that doesn't help, the best thing to do is just write. Doesn't matter if you're pulling stuff from your arse, at least it will give you something to work with later. Writ'er's block doesn't exist. And it never will.

When I have writer''s block, I''ve found that it helps if I take a break and do something completely different. For example, I''m used to writing long, multi-chaptered stories. Lately, I''ve been entering a lot of one-shot contests on Gaia, and my writing''s coming back to me. *Shrugs* It''s a bit different for everyone, so good luck!

Personally I just stop writting for a few days until I catch my muse. However, like said above, it's different for everyone. Good luck! mrgreen
