This may seem a little redundant or pointless, but having met many professional writers I'm often given the advice when writing to end in the middle of a sentence when at the end of a session. That way, when you return to it later, it will feel incomplete and demand your attention, and inspire various endings of that same sentence.

I've tried that before with my Interpreter fic since I only wrote on the weekends, but then I'd get frustrated trying to remember what I was getting at lol.

I've never tried that... But I have tried ending during some minorly climactic section, and that helped I guess... lol, I either have a lot of ideas and could write for hours but don't have enough time, or I don't have much to say but I've got time...

I tried that once, then I forgot what I was writing about...xD in the end, the climax was pretty lukewarm. I had planned out this totally awesome thing, then I had to go to work, when I came back, I was like, "CRAP! I FORGOT WHAT I WAS WRITING!"
