“Every writer I know has trouble writing.”
~ Joseph Heller
Hey Lovelies.
It’s NaNoWriMo time again.
It was fine, last year.
I had a new story to tell and the words flew onto the page, and I couldn’t wait to get to my desk each morning.
But today?
Ugh.
I need a new beginning. I need better plot structure. I need a tighter narrative arc.
I need an ending.
There are too many threads and too much complication, and what’s this whole thing about anyway?
All my ideas suck.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hate writing.
Still, I have no time for that. I have 50 000 new and better words to get done this month, starting right now.
Wish me luck. I so want to get this book finished and out into the world.
Love, paper cuts, endless insecurity, and bottomless self-doubt, Nicole xx
PS – I don’t really hate writing. I love it. But you know, it’s a complicated relationship…
