Writer's block. I get around it by making myself write. Doesn't matter what mood I'm in, who's there with me, how things are going....I just write.
1 KB is my minimum. As long as I'm able to even rustle up a single sentence, I am one step closer to finishing the first, and longest, chapter story I've ever commited myself to.:XD:
I have to admit though, re-writing is the hard part. >.<
You've got to take what you've written and God forbid, at times, erase entire chapters. That hurts. It hurts like crazy to work hard for something then have to take it back when you realize it won't fit in with what you want to do in the story.
I wouldn't trade this for the world, though. I love writing. I love going to bed wondering what the characters are up to. I love taking walks in the woods and thinking hard about plot points, then having a cleared head suddenly become buzzing full of voices. I love writing after days of feeling untalented and sad, and blocked up like there's a brick wall between me and the characters. I love hearing music that reminds me of what I'm going through, and what the characters are going through.
Most of all, I like that feeling of putting together a gigantic puzzle, not with pictures, but with words. Once I put in that last piece, I think I will be phenomenally happy.
And then I'll have to go work on telling another story.
As long as I am alive, I don't think my stories should ever end. That's how I feel. :XD: Maybe one of these days I'll be able to finish an original piece, not merely fanfiction. >.>
