    Motivation for longer works

    I get into really long and in depth works, and have a couple of novels going, but I seem to stall out pretty early. I have a plots, characters, ideas, and I can make them interesting when I actually sit down to write. So far, though, I haven't made it past 25,000 words. My main problem seems...
