<hits head on table>Looked at my novel-in-progress; it is such a mess and I HATE it today. I know I must soldier on, because I am probably near a breakthrough moment if I hate it this much, but it is agonizing and awful and I feel hopeless. </hits head on table>*
*table on which I am slamming my head is pictured above.
I know that feeling.
Recent novel took me 15 drafts before I actually even _liked_ the story. Ended up changing the world, the setting, erased about 5 characters that I had somewhat fleshed out. In the end I never looked back.
Ping me if you wanna chat about it.
…or you know, just to vent.
Well, it’s a beautiful table if one must hit one’s head on a table 🙂 But hang in there. We all hate our WIPs from time to time. Sometimes I hate mine and sometimes I love it, depending on the week. Writing, like you said in a previous post, is HARD.
