Writing is just plain hard work! I know this, but I had forgotten it, as I have been out of practice from book writing. The words stamina, resilience and, crazy come to mind. The other day I spend 3 hours writing two paragraphs – and I don’t know if they were even that good! I am currently revising three chapters for a proposal. This is the third revision based on reviewers from three different publishers in a year. At this point, I feel a bit lost in the whole thing. I know that is a typical feeling during the writing process, but that doesn’t make it any easier. I enjoy writing, especially when it’s finished! We write because we feel like we have something to say, but over the past week or two, I have found myself wondering if I am writing something that people will really want to read. I guess I am feeling self-doubt. It’s a good thing I have a writing partner to inspire me. This keeps me going, at least for another day.
