Plot Advice

[farmerxofxmoors]

Has anyone ever had a compulsion to write something . . . but it doesn't seem to have any direction? I've been getting this a lot lately. My muse will provide me with characters and even some seemingly unrelated plot points, but nothing to connect it and not final direction that we're supposedly heading toward. This often leads to writing one chapter or so and then giving up on the project because there's simply no way to connect it to the next point.

Any advice on how I can bring this mess to heel?
