Failure can be a great a teacher. Look back at other works you’ve written but “failed” to complete. What was the obstacle that prevented you from completing it? The writing felt flat? No action occurred? The character wasn’t interesting? Identify the problem, research some tips for overcoming it (for example, use active rather than passive voice to give writing spunk), and then rewrite the piece utilizing the advice you’ve read.
