This is a question Starting something you couldn't finish

Finnbar says: I used to know a guy who tattooed LOVE across his left knuckles, but didn't tattoo HATE on the other knuckles because he was right-handed and realised he couldn't finish. Ever run out of skills or inspiration halfway through a job?

Make yourself
write a little bit every day, but don't set any lower limit on how much. Even if it's just changing a single word then you've done your bit for the day - but be rigorous about making yourself do that bit every day. If you don't feel like doing it ask yourself "what - I can't write a single word?"

I've found that often I sat down intending to do the minimal amount, but ended up doing more.

(this wasn't for a novel by the way, it was for my game, but the principle is probably the same)
