I have written all but the final couple of chapters of my first book on interior design. When I first got on this site I learned it was okay to query before finishing, great I could start working on those (direction #2). Previously I was going to finish first (#1). Well, now one must have a proposal (#3) ready before you query. After some studious hunting around this site it seemed I need to garner more writing credentials, so off I went researching freelance options writing for magazines (#4). I write for my own website, an unrelated newsletter and an e-zine but I figure those don't count.
This has all occurred in the last few weeks. I feel busy being busy but incredibly unproductive. I tend to get bogged down in doing something the "right way" to the point where the initial goal gets lost. So here I sit with too much information stumped at which direction to go next.
I'd like to finish my book and get it to an agent and publish it so I can start work on the next one! Am I too impatient wanting too much too fast? Do any of you have any thoughts on this confusion? A kick in the butt is fine, just point me towards a direction.
