I sure hope it does. My biggest problem in the past was getting stuck with the story and then procrastinating too much while finding a solution. But I think I have much less trouble now that I stopped trying to stick to the specific story too much, and not be afraid to go to a completely different direction to keep it both realistic and interesting, instead of just picking one of the two.
