   A couple months ago, you had a thread that talked about the Wall.  I see this   
   as more or less the same issue, where the author begins a manuscript with a   
   lot of enthusiasm, reaches some point at maybe 20K words or so, feels he has   
   lost the suspense    
   momentum, wrote a couple scenes that can't hold readers, the dialog is talking   
   heads, whatever.  Then there is not what we call writer's block, where he is   
   unable to write anything; but he can only repeat the scenario with some other   
   story manuscript.
