How do you get back into writing after the hyperfixation dies?
I've been really struggling with writing lately. I've been trying to keep going writing my long WIP and haven't been able to get back into it and it's been almost a year and a half now. I've tried writing new things to get back into the groove, letting my fic sit while I do a mental refresh, even forcing myself to write it even if I don't feel like it. Nothing I've tried works and it feels like the spark is gone. I know it's just a rough patch that I'm going through, because what I really want to write is the next chapter, but I have to get through this current chapter to bridge the gap to get to the next plot point, but I don't know.
I'm getting frustrated and just want to keep writing and not give up. I want to finish a fic for once. How do you guys finish a fic, even when the hyperfixation/spark is gone? Can you get your flow and excitement back? I'm happy to talk with anyone and open to any advice. I just want to know I'm not really alone in this feeling and would like some encouragement 🥲 Anything helps really.
