Writer's block

So I've been writing a screenplay sort of in reverse for the past few weeks. Not "in reverse" as starting from the last scene and working toward the beginning, but starting with the small details and eventually formulating a larger overarching plot. Yes, I'm doing it like this on purpose. I've decided that I'm not going to stop and look back at what I've written until I'm at 180 pages. I've hit a standstill at 17 pages right now. At least I'm almost 10% to my goal, I guess.

Your brain is just percolating the ideas in the background. Work on any other writing in the meantime. :)
Nonsense, I have not yet begun to defile myself.
