The story of my life right now

Oct 18, 2012 11:11

me:  Oh this book
I really don't know about it.
I need to get to [character] and the concept of [story element] faster in chapter 1
Chapter 3 is ssslllloooowwww until the end
and some of it is kind of...quaint
Joel:  So fix it
me:  ARGH
I am starting to hate this book
Like srsly not want to see it ever again
I don't want to go fix the first 3 chapters AGAIN
Joel:  That'll happen :/
me:  I'm wondering if it's salvageable
I'm wondering if I should direct my energy to developing [other project] because it fits the epic genre better
But no, that's dumb
I should really just fix the first three chapters again
It gets good in the middle!

me: I'm just frustrated because every new thing I have to do pushes back the date I can realistically be done

And, rightly or not, I'm feeling a lot of pressure to be finished with it.
me:  I think part of it is because I feel like I can't really call myself an author until I'm shopping stuff around which is probably silly but it's a thing anyway
