I know the answer to this is not cut and dry. Writing my first book proved immensely challenging and after it was over I thought the second one could not be nearly as difficult but now that I have taken an extended break from writing and starting to write the sequel to my first one I am having a hard time getting into the groove again. I guess its mostly owing the fact that I am generally a workaholic when it comes to writing and having taken so much time off (I really needed the rest after the first novel) since finishing my first book that its just re-establishing my discipline that is so trying.
At any rate, just wondering if any of you thought the biggest hurdle was your first novel and if all subsequent books came a bit easier.
I have my synopsis and outline down pat but even so its hard to get on a roll nowadays.
