Oh God
I'm having a mid-novel crisis.
My characters have no character.
I cannot write prose except for dialogue.
Have I unintentionally said something bigoted?
Or ignorant?
Or impossibly stupid?
Have I let too much of myself be seen in this?
The ending is too happy. One of my friends said it was cliched. Is it cliched? This thought haunts me at night. A lot. I can't write it any other way. This is the way it has to end otherwise there is no point. Is it cliched?
I am not smart enough to do this.
I keep having these horrible thoughts how if it's ever published (I get ahead of myself a lot) and people ask me questions about it I won't know what to say and I will just be standing there saying "I don't know" to everything and then everyone will think I'm an idiot.
