So, yeah, I realize this topic is ancient...and I sincerely hope Quiver has been able to escape the sarcophagus since his initial posting almost four years ago, however, for anyone struggling with this now, my advice is this: quiet the expectations. This kind of creative block usually happens because the output of a rough draft doesn't match the quality of a published one. Don't even compare the draft to what you want it to be. The story is not supposed to publishable when it first comes out of your head. Think about it this way: you can edit a bad draft, but you can't edit a blank page. Drafting is a way of practicing a story until it comes out the way you want it to. As you practice draft after draft, your ability to create what you want the first time around becomes that much easier over time.

I recently watched Stranger Things on Netflix. Millie Bobby Brown IS a pre-teen Vin on that series.
