So many questions I can't answer. Two in particular I've already posed to the scribes with no insight gained or ideas sparked. My WIP is at a complete halt because of them and I'm in complete despair...Again, I have no idea what I'm doing wrong, that I can't figure these things out...
Bummer. How about writing some back stories of your world, or some history? Could take your mind of your problems, or until you get the ideas rolling again.
