Okay, I'm having problems with coming into a part in the second chapter. That is why I haven't updated in so long. I really need help. Please, is there someone who can help?

For those who have read it, it left off with everyone heading to Aura Hall. I want to arrive at the hall, but I don't want to be abrupt. I have literally written half the chapter trying to get around it, but I'm stuck now. It is sunset. I need them to somehow get into the hall for dinner. Any advice?
 
What inspired you in the first place?
 
Get drunk or get high. That should give you some ideas.

No, seriously, leave it be for some time. If there's anything else that interests you in writing these days, do it. I'm in a terrible writers'block as well and can't seem to get out of it. But previously, when I was in one, I just wrote stuff about other franchises. Don't even need to finish. Just write something till you get ideas and inspiration for your main fic. That's how it works for me. Hope it helps you as well.

Hey, I was gonna say that. :p
 
Imagine them going into the hall. What do you see? What are the characters doing? Still nothing? Compare it to something else. Is it a mad rush, or do they stroll inside? What order do they enter the hall in? Who's in the hall? What are the characters thinking? You can never not be not abrupt. There is always something you can add.


Also, triple negatives for the win.
 
Looks like you got a writer's block.
When that happens to me, I just leave the story for a while, you know to recharge and relax.
And then get back to it.
Everyone else probably has better advice, but thats just me.
Godd luck with it, though.
