Thank you. Those are very encouraging words. I really would like to finish it. I guess my biggest problem has been finding an ending that hasn't already been done a million times.

Yeah my main problem is sort of self-made but for me I am making everything as original as possible. That and keeping it 'hard sci-fi' (based on real world physics) make a difficult mix.

Hardest part for me is character development though. And making them convincing. Making them lively, making them like humans. Making them realistic.

mnaintaiing two focuses at once. You have thos huge war where the enemy's goal is purging of those who corrupt the 'sacred planet' and the the enslavement of the rest of the people who inhait the other Colonial Federation world (Earth mostly uninhabitable but it is also essentially the new jerusalem. The plot goes deeper than that though. Much deeper). At the same time it also focses o this suad of Marines fighting this evil enemy. The story is about fighting for freedom at its core.
