Getting through the last few pages by Dragonwriter

These writing tips are more helpful than they appear. If you're stuck, give these a try:

1. Stick to your outline
2. Imagine the ending as if were made into a movie.
3. Read a similar book relating to your topic.
4. Find three random pictures and incorparate them into the ending.
5. Write random sentences until you strike gold.
6. Eat chocolate/caffeine(anything else that makes you happy...)
