questions from tall_princess about novel writing

tall_princess asked:

I have only really tried to write one novel, and I got about 90 pages of it done, and then I didn’t have anything else to say. I alternated points of view, and had it written as though there were several people thinking out loud, with one main one.

I like to write stories based on things I have been through, so I know a little bit about it. I personally don’t like to read something that someone has written, and been through it myself, knowing what it’s all about, and knowing that the information is wrong. I know that you can do research, but no matter how much research you do, I can’t seem to get the personalized veiwpoint. How can I get past that?
