Hi everyone,
I apologize in advance for being so negative here. Usually I try to keep my negativity off the internet. It's just been a really rough year for me and for my family, with things not letting up. I'm trying to focus on my writing, but it's hard when I'm feeling pretty bummed about everything. I've not been able to write much this year, and I feel like my YA contemporary novel, ADRIFT, isn't very good. I have another novel, a YA fantasy, that I focused on from 1999-2012 before trunking it and moving on. I queried it and got a few requests for fulls, but then I chickened out and abandoned it. I have other novels in various states of disarray, and I have other ideas, but at this point in my life, I don't think I have it in me to write an entirely new novel. I just feel like none of my ideas are good, and none of my writing is good. What do you guys do when your writer's block is this bad, or when you're having such a bad time with life in general, and you feel like you can't write?
Sorry for the blah post, everyone. Advice appreciated :).
