This is the reality of a writer having a mini meltdown. I can't remember what number book this is that I've written. I dread to think how many words I've penned in my lifetime (probably in the billion by now). I have accolades to my name that SAY I'm a successful writer. But there are some days that I look at that New York Times bestseller above my name and feel like a fraud. Like today. Today I'm SO close to deleting 146,000 words on Fable of Happiness Book Two. Why? Because I've stopped enjoying what I'm writing. Because I've lost faith in myself. Because the plot that I wanted so much to work...doesn't. Why am I sharing this with you? It's simple. I know a lot of new authors and old, go through this. Sometimes this feeling of 'lacking' can cause the book to be shut forever, never to be published. I'm guilty of doing that myself. But I'm also sharing this because, even though I just wasted a week of my life chasing a plot that I wanted to work but my characters fought against, meaning I now have to delete a large proportion of the book and start again, the good news is? I just got that spark back. The one we writers chase and a tug on our intuition when we know it's the right path. I let the characters show me what to do and thank goodness because my brain was getting in the way there. And now, with that spark back, with that faith back, I can make this book a thousand times better than before. I want it to hurt when you read it. I want you to feel what Kas and Gem do because, I'm not the one telling this story, they are. :) so...if you're like me and having a rough day, just breathe, trust, and be brave enough to do what is needed to be done to turn okay into great :)
