Another voice added to those who say, "Just do it." I'm writing a short story/novella that began with a great idea (IMHO, anyway) but not a clear sense of certain key issues in the story. I am about halfway through now and all those issues are resolved. Getting immersed into writing the story gets the subconscious cooking and those ideas just bubble up to the surface. As a writer, I believe you have to have total faith that this will happen, that the ideas will come, the ending will resolve itself the closer you get to it.
