My novel about a lighthouse keeper stalled out after 30,000 words
I got stuck trying to map out the family history of the main character and just lost all momentum. Has anyone else hit a wall with world-building and found a way to push through it?

My first draft always hits a wall around 25k words too. I find it helps to skip the tricky backstory and just write a dramatic scene from later in the story. What's one exciting thing you know will happen at the lighthouse?
