I’ve reached a crossroads while writing my latest science fiction work in progress. In short I’ve done precisely the thing I didn’t want to do. I’ve written myself into a corner – yet again. So while I ponder on where to take the story for the next few weeks or months, I’ve asked two fellow scifi writers, Derek Haines and Nicholas Rossis, to cast their critical eye over the fifteen thousand words written so far. At this stage of the game I need fresh eyes to take a close look at it. They can both be objective. I can’t.
More later,

So annoying when that happens. I admire your resolve and sensible approach to rectifying the situation. I usually just write something random and unlikely 😉 Good luck!

That can be so disheartening. To avoid that problem, I had to get into the habit of forming the opening in my head, envisioning the perfect ending (ironic or tragic or happy), and using that as my map to guide me. If not, I would write myself into a corner as well. Best of luck.

Not unusual but very smart to have someone look at where you are with a critical eye, to see what maybe you can’t. And you picked two good people!
